win4profit Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I know I haven't posted a lot lately but Gypsy is having a dental today and she is going to need all the positive thoughts and prayers we can send. Gypsy will be 11 years young later this month and I weighed very carefully the pros and cons of putting her under. She does not do well with anesthesia but her teeth are horrible and her breath is even worse. So the thought of a nasty bacteria doing her in because I was afraid of the anesthesia scared me more. There is a good chance that she will have to have more teeth pulled as well. So please keep her in your thoughts today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BillF Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 My girl Olive had a dental last week. She's 10. Came through it fine. She had two small front teeth pulled. And her teeth and breath are MUCH better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

win4profit Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 My poor baby had to have 4 more teeth pulled. She ate a little soft food around 7:30 and was able to lay comfortably until we went to bed. She woke up around 12:30 and wanted to go out. After that she whimpered for about an hour before finally falling back asleep. The vet sent her home with Meloxidyl for pain and she had just had a dose before bed so I couldn't give her any more. This morning she seems a lot more alert and no longer walks with a wobble. She ate her breakfast and has been napping comfortably. Slick has been super protective of her, he seemed to know that she was fragile and has been right by her side since she came home. Thanks for all well wishes.

win4profit Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 What a difference a day makes. Today Gypsy is full of it, she ate her breakfast with great enthusiasm. After her morning potty break she grabbed a stuffy and ran and jumped and played like a pup. Clearly her bad teeth had been holding her back.
