At Shane's yearly exam, the vet found a cracked tooth, so Shane went in for a dental. Two cracked infected pre-molars were extracted. The vet said the stench was unbelievable. Poor Shane. No wonder he was so cranky. Two weeks of Tramadol and he's been much better. We are weaning off right now so he doesn't end up in the Betty Ford Clinic.
So ironic that I was using the knee caps to keep their teeth clean and they ended up cracking two teeth. The vet tech said it's the most common extraction because they only need to catch the tooth just right and it shatters. Shelties have bad teeth anyway.
On another note, Shane made the most amazing weave pole entry last week in class. Such a shame we can't compete.
