I have just brought Reuben home from the vet. Last week he and Myrtle had their vaccinations and checks. Reuben had previously had all his teeth out due to bad gums and rotting teeth, leaving him with just his 4 canines. Today he had the remaining canines removed. π₯Ίπ’
Strangely in September while I was away for a week, one of his top canines dropped out by itself, leaving him with just 3. 𫨠I was advised that his remaining top canine was found to be wobbly, so I was took him today to have it removed. It turns out that the others were also diseased and had to be removed. π I did see them in a jar and the roots were blackened. Iβm thankful that he is no longer uncomfortable, and the teeth were extracted easily, so not a long anaesthetic. Thank you Chirnside Park Vet for your care.
He has come home in high spirits, I have just fed him, his now wet food diet. He is on antibiotics and Metacam for 5 days.
You can see his gums, but still he is SO handsome and delicious, he is my love. πππ
