Cooper wasn’t supposed to see the Vet. Until next week, but they moved it up a week because of his tooth breaking yesterday. I was told over the phone he could be seen, and get all done today, but will need to go back in a week just for the shots. He did the micro chipping, exam, and even a look at that tooth.
Thank God all is sorta fine? He won’t need surgery, no need for anti-biotics, and just see if he is hurting (to bring him back in). My stomach was in knots, and I would have felt more at ease with medication at least, and hoping he isn’t “suffering in silence” like those I read about online yesterday (when it happened before getting him in). I’m still ending up with cuts on my fingers as I retrieve rocks he likes to chew (saying “drop it” doesn’t help), yes even after the fact, so if he were in actual pain I would think he’d stop that horrible little game if tricking my fingers into his mouth?!?!
I was fully prepared for this dog, that hasn’t been cheap, to cost a small fortune. I looked online and it can cost $150-$600 depending on the tooth, and whether an adult or baby tooth! Thank you God… just hoping that the right thing/choices were made! He’s like another child to me.
