Time4ANap Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 (edited) Gracie was KNOT happy when he left the house this morning. Apparently she's gotten pretty attached to her new brother. She keeps going to the front door to look for the car. Mark is expected to lose a couple of questionable teeth - so please keep paws crossed for him. Hopefully that's all that he needs. We know that he only chews on one side but never really shows that there's any pain. For those asking - this morning's update is on the second page of posts. He's doing great today. Last UPDATE for the evening 6:20 PM AZ Time. Mark is home and walked into the house under his own power. He was really panting, so we aimed a fan at his bed and over the past 20-30 minutes the panting has all but stopped. He is very awake for just having had anesthesia. Usually the hounds crash almost as fast as they lay down when they get home after anesthesia. He looks good and seems to be doing well. Just a little bit of bleeding at the moment. Latest UPDATE - 3:15 PM AZ Time - Mark lost a total of 11 teeth. 4 were loose and the rest had a great deal of bone loss and needed to be removed. He is in recovery and doing well. I should note that his pre-dental labs showed him to be the healthiest greyhound we've ever had because his labs were all PERFECT! He will be home in a couple of hours. I may not have anything to update until the morning given how late his surgery went. Previous UPDATE - 1:00 PM Arizona Time - Based on the x-rays our poor boy is going to lose about 10 toofers - 5 on each side - mostly small teeth. I feel bad because there has been no indication that he had any pain. He eats everything you put in front of him. We had noticed that harder treats like Milk Bones were only being chewed on one side of his mouth which is why he went in for the dental. Edited February 29 by Time4ANap Update 2 Quote Camp Broodie.
