PatricksMom Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Henry and Leo are having dentals tomorrow, the first time since they've been with us and the first time we've had this vet put anyone under anethesia. They are expected to be uncomplicated with no extractions and I've gone over the anesthesia protocal. Good thoughts for them and their enormously nervous mommy would be very appreciated. Quote Beth, Petey (8 September 2018- ), and Faith (22 March 2019). Godspeed Patrick (28 April 1999 - 5 August 2012), Murphy (23 June 2004 - 27 July 2013), Leo (1 May 2009 - 27 January 2020), and Henry (10 August 2010 - 7 August 2020), you were loved more than you can know.

KF_in_Georgia Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) You might want to print this and give it to your vet tomorrow: http://greytarticles.wordpress.com/medical-first-aid/anesthesia-surgical/high-potassium-during-anesthesia-causes-greyhound-sudden-death/ It's not anything your vet needs to do differently unless something seems "off" during the dental. Good luck with your babies.

Guest Doggone Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Sending you and your pups good wishes for their dentals. My Autumn will be facing her first one since coming to me, and her first with her vet, too, so I know how nerve-racking this whole process can be. I'll keep you in my thoughts, and I'll need the same from you next month . Best of luck to Henry and Leo, and to you, too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatricksMom Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 Everyone came through just fine. Henry's liver values are still slightly elevated (for a greyhound) but have held stable since September so we're going to wait 6 months and recheck him.

PatricksMom Posted February 18, 2014 Author Share Posted February 18, 2014 Glad all went well. Will keep paws crossed on the liver values. Thanks, our vet is not alarmed but I am still a bit nervous. When checking for bladder stones, his liver appeared healthy but a bit enlarged to the vet? We'll certainly keep an eye on things. Quote Beth, Petey (8 September 2018- ), and Faith (22 March 2019).
