RaineysMom Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 (edited) hi....I don't post many topics anymore but am here a lot reading If you guys -- whose prayers and good thoughts have helped SO many times in the past! -- could spare a small one for my sweet Larry Bear we sure would appreciate it. He goes in for the dreaded dental tomorrow and I'm terrified. this is the FIRST dental he's had (that I know of) and the very first dental I have EVER brought ANY dog in for so far, so I am extra worried (and I'm a worry wart to begin with). I've always held off, being so scared of the whole thing and the putting under and all. Larry just turned 9 in February but thanks for our Lab-in-a-Greyhound-Suit Zekie Bear, acts like 2 most of the time our Anubis had the WORST teeth and I was so afraid to do a dental I never did, and should of -- after getting Osteo in 2012 he went under 3 times in 6 weeks for radiation and I was kicking myself over and over again (still am) for never getting him a dental. I'm sure he'll be fine, but as I know you all can appreciate, I am worried. He's my baby bear thanks! Friday 1:00pm -- Dr. Finan called and said Larry did GREYT!!! no extractions! :yay said he's a little drunk but is awake and we can pick him up at 2:30pm today thanks again for all the prayers and good wishes!!!! :D Edited June 10, 2016 by RaineysMom Quote Kim and Bruce - with Rick (Rick Roufus 6/30/16) and missing my sweet greyhound Angels Rainey (LG's Rainey 10/4/2000 - 3/8/2011), Anubis (RJ's Saint Nick 12/25/2001 - 9/12/12) and Zeke (Hey Who Whiz It 4/6/2009 - 7/20/2020) and Larry (PTL Laroach 2/24/2007 - 8/2/2020) -- and Chester (Lab) (8/31/1990 - 5/3/2005), Captain (Schipperke) (10/12/1992 - 6/13/2005) and Remy (GSP) (?/?/1998 - 1/6/2005) at the bridge"Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk.

schultzlc Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Sending good thoughts for your Larry! I can totally relate. I sent my girls in for dentals for the first time a couple of weeks ago. While the day was stressful for me, the results were great, and I am so glad I had it done.

Remolacha Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Of course you worry, that's your job Sallie had a dental at 8 or 9, I can't remember now (bad mom!) She lost 22 teeth and was back to normal in about 24 hrs, Larry should do just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaineysMom Posted June 10, 2016 Author Share Posted June 10, 2016 Prayers for you......does he have Amicar available for post-op bleeding? wish I had asked about this :( prayers!! If you need help, please pm me (I'm off work until Monday). thanks Julie! Bruce is off today as well and we did it on a Friday so we'd have the weekend with him just in case. Poor baby bear was so confused on why he didn't get his last turn out/going to bed cookie last night at midnight and even MORE confused ON WHY NO BREAKIE THIS MORNING he'll get a nice (small) meal later this afternoon.. he is scheduled for 11am and they will call afterwards...am on pins and needles already. I know he is in great hands, but I can't help but worry. I put on a very brave face when dropping him off, he was already stressed about being there and he didn't need me being nervous/scared on top of it. I told him to be a big, brave, strong Lare Bear for us. thanks to all for the good thoughts!

EllenEveBaz Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Hope he's enjoying a (slightly dopey) cuddle at home now. In our pack, dogs get ice cream a day or two after a dental. Followed by toothbrushing Quote Ellen, with brindle Milo and the blonde ballerina, Gelsey remembering Eve, Baz, Scout, Romie, Nutmeg, and Jeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
