Thanks to our donors & supporters, Romeo was able to get the dental surgery he so desperately needed.
At first glace to Romeo's mouth near his top canines, you might think "his teeth look pretty good for an 8 year old dog"...but take a closer look. Much of his mouth was completely rotted with Dental Disease.
Dental Disease in dogs can not only cause pain and discomfort while eating, but it can also lead to bacteria entering the bloodstream, causing problems in other parts of the body including the liver, kidneys & heart.
Things like this should not be neglected. Animals cannot tell us when they're uncomfortable, but there are almost always signs if you pay close attention. We knew as soon as Romeo arrived that he was going to need his mouth checked out. He had excessive licking, difficulty chewing, and had horrible breath.
19 Teeth were removed from Romeo's mouth, so he'll already be feeling better!
