Flurry's Turn

[Sharon7]

OMG Ann! Did you have any inkling she was going to lose that many teeth? She's not even that old as I recall. Please, PLEASE hovering black cloud GO AWAY!!!

 

[Ron Atkinson]

Ann, I am sorry for your little ones dental, I hope she heals quickly and can still eat comfortably. I would say give a treat from us, but right now maybe banking a treat for later might be a better idea.

Oh lordy Ann thats a big number! Both in time and teeth lost!
Praying its nothing more than bad sheltie teeth.
Benny's mass removals and teeth extraction/cleaning for tomorrow just got cancelled. Now I'm getting really scared.

Flurry is finally out of surgery. It took more than 3 hours. They pulled NINE teeth and took a biopsy of the swollen area on her gum to check for tumors. She'll come home later this afternoon.

And Ruffles goes in Monday for her bad tooth.....

Yikes Ann! Poor Flurry! That’s a lot of teeth. My brother in law took one of his Bichon’s in for a dental today as well…she also had 9 teeth pulled!

I’ll be thinking of you tomorrow Margi and sending you positive thoughts! Benny has enough problems! Enough is enough already!

So glad Flurry is out of her surgery, but holy cow!!!! 9 teeth?! Wowza! She's not that old. My goodness! Hope she recovers quickly.

P.S. I had to go google the amount of teeth a dog has; Flurry lost almost 1/4!

Did Benny's appointment get rescheduled?

Did Benny's appointment get rescheduled?

Benson's mass removal was postponed due to an ALT liver number of 665. Today we did the pre and post prandial bile acids test. And I INSISTED we get gallbladder scans ASAP and by God the mobil scanner radiologist lady had today open! So I'm taking both boys in at 2:45, Fil for gallbladder only and Benny for gallbladder and liver.
Meanwhile I swear that mass got bigger-- it looks like its trying to break out of the bottom of the gumline as well. I'm literally sitting here thinking what do I do if it explodes?!? Can they explode? It doesn't seem pus filled...
Thank God I'm retired cuz it's going to be a total of 3 trips to the vet today!

 

[Sandy in CT]

Oh my! Glad you were able to get in!

 

[Margi]

So turns out if you hit your dog face on the dog door flap hard enough the mass will bleed! I got it stopped with warm wet compress (ie paper towels). I had to chase the lil bugger down to stop it so he doesn't appear to be in pain. This day needs to be over now lol
