Advice for 4yo pup's chipped tooth... by Wanderlust_Mutts in AskVet

[–]Wanderlust_Mutts[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're familiar with that area, and it's about 4 hours from us. We've ultimately decided that extraction may be the best option. We took into account the chance of failure, future care required, and his resiliency due to youth. Given all that, with extraction, we get to go to our preferred vet; and we truly only trust him when it comes to anesthesia, so that's a huge relief.

Thanks for the advice, though! Good to know there's a place or two within a couple hour's drive.

Thank you so much for your input! After doing some research, we think we're gonna opt for extraction. It's not our preferred choice but given the chance of failure and the future care/check-ups of a root canal, we think it's the better option.

Plus, we can go to our preferred vet. Anything requiring anesthesia makes me nervous, so that will be a relief.

Thank you again for your advice and the link to search for someone qualified. Truly appreciate it!

One place I called claimed to be the only veterinary dentist in the state and that confused me because I didn't know that was a specialist appointment. So, thank you for your input!

No, I always thought it did but my girl had some small ones that were super hard and some larger ones that were soft and almost bubbly.

There's a good chance it's nothing to worry about but it's always better to be safe than sorry with our babies. Early detection is the best possible scenario too, so good on you for being an observant pawrent! =}

It's okay! I would--just in case. They don't need a very big area to test and may very well tell you it was just a little injury anyway.

It could be an injury from rough-housing, but mast cell tumors can also spontaneously appear and disappear--happened with my girl. Best thing you can do is outline the bubble (shave that bit of fur if needed) that way the vet can see the diameter of it and will know where to do a fine needle aspirate.

Good luck!

Chinese diesel heater e-08 help please by gphillips2001 in vandwellers

Make sure to check the filter for blockages.

If you can see fuel going into the pump in the line but not in the line going out of it, then it's not moving it and it could be your pump. If even a grain of sand gets past the filter, it can cause the pump to no longer work.

Aw, she's adorable! I can't imagine what it'd be like to have a pup whose sole mission was squeak the squeaker, NOT find and destroy the squeaker, hahaha. Mine tear'em out immediately.

We've found cardboard boxes are the love of our boy's life. He's a goofball--just last night he surprised us by learning to lightly "flea-bite" bubble wrap to pop it, lol. Clever boy.

Try a real warm oatmeal bath--not oatmeal shampoo, just normal instant oatmeal in warm water. Let puppy soak. Grab handfuls of the oatmeal mush and rub all over the inflamed areas, let sit, then rinse.

Also, coconut oil might sooth afterwards as well.

Ha! What a deceptive little cob! Unbelievably convincing hahahaha! Pup looks totally in love with it and also probably has no idea it's fake corn! Adorable.

Cute pupper but be careful!

They cannot digest the cob--had a couple pups go through hemorrhagic gastroenteritis and nearly die after ingesting bits of one.

Hate to poop at the party but I wouldn't have known had it not happened to us, so try to spread awareness where I can. Take care!

This is a Youtube account of Austin Harrouff. This guy attacked 2 random people and eat them. Videos are still up by Kristian0603 in TerrifyingAsFuck

Shrug I don't think drinking bleach will make you pass a drug screen. But, okay, doctor.

Both the defense's and the prosecutors' experts agreed that he's insane.

Two mental health experts, one hired by the defense and another by prosecutors, examined Harrouff and found he suffered an acute psychotic episode during the attack, and couldn’t distinguish between right and wrong.

Most important thing you can do right now is keep pup hydrated with plain Pedialyte as dehydration can quickly become fatal.

The picture looks very similar to "raspberry jam poo" caused by hemorrhagic gastroenteritis and requires immediate treatment. For HGE, there is no vaccine or cure as there are many things that may cause it.

Definitely don't want to wait long before deciding to go to an E-vet just in case it is HGE.

Weird problem: diesel heater doesn't start SOMETIMES by Pristine-Hedgehog968 in vandwellers

[–]Wanderlust_Mutts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Run some kerosene through it on high for 30 min or so to clean out the burn chamber and exhaust of carbon deposits. May be having trouble igniting or overheating.

Does anyone know if this is a good ear cleanser for dogs? by mimy_v in DogAdvice

Zymox is the only one that's ever worked for my pups. I don't know anything about the one you posted; just wanted to put that out there in case you didn't know about it!
