gryhndsr4us Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 (edited) Poor Gypsy gave me quite a scare last night. Her leg was cover in blood when she stood up at 9:30 when I called them to go out. I took her into the kitchen and cleaned her leg up, found nothing. Then I saw a drop on blood come out of her mouth. She whined when I tried to look. It seemed like a lot of blood so off to the E-vet. She has a very bad area in the incisor area and any small trauma causes it to bleed. Soft food only, on antibiotics and pain meds. Called my Vet this morning and they got her in right away tomorrow for a dental (even though they are booked for the next 2 weeks), most likely extractions will be needed.

Guest paulamariez Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Ah, those stupid, nasty greyhound teeth! We're fighting the same problems over here with Bueller. He's going in next week for his dental too. He's had a bum tooth that keeps getting terrible infections in it and having to get antibiotics until we've saved enough money to get his dental done. He had a bout of the mouth bleedies too, although it doesn't sound quite as bad as your poor girl Gypsy has! We never really figured out what made Bueller's mouth bleed either. I'm keeping your precious Gypsy in my thoughts and prayers so they fix her mouth up tomorrow and she has a quick healing of her teeth problems. Tiger, Bueller and Domino sending Gypsy some healing doggie kisses and wishing her the bestest of luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gryhndsr4us Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 Poor baby she's home. Her muzzle is a bit swollen. She lost 14 teeth! We have an additional pain med to go with the meds we got at the E-Vet. My Vet gave me his cell phone number in case I need him tonight (they do not have a vet on call or after hours service). Hopefully we will have a quiet night. Gypsy is sleeping right now, she is oozing a bit of blood.

patricia Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Our Angel LaceyLaine lost 20 some teeth her first dental.

gryhndsr4us Posted April 3, 2008 Author Share Posted April 3, 2008 Poor baby her muzzle is so swollen she looks like a Bull Terrier! Good news though, she ate her mushy breakfast! She also took her pills with some cheese! I will give her a small snack in a little while, I only gave her a small breakfast. She is sleeping now and doesn't seem to be oozing anymore.
