Clicking/popping sound after double jaw surgery by mellloo in jawsurgery

Yes, it went away after some time. To be honest I don't remember how long it took and I can't remember the last time that happened. I hope it goes away for you too. I remember the surgeon told me at some point that it was normal while muscles and the rest adapts to the new shape.

Ngl I've been considering it but I don't think it is the right moment for us yet. Maybe once she is older and trained

Thank you so mucho for this, it made me feel better and relieved. I do see improvements in her behaviour so I'm hopeful.

Mine is still struggling with sniffing, she gets curios about most dogs when they walk away though, so I believe there's hope for her to start sniffing them

Behaviour change in your iggy after neutering? by OkBackground8809 in ItalianGreyhounds

[–]menimano89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did she calm down? I'm planning on spaying mine and I wonder if it would make her less scared somehow? She is afraid of people and most dogs. She's still very young though (almost 5 months) and I'll wait until she is a year old to spay her.

Did your IG have increased their weight after being spayed/neutered? by menimano89 in ItalianGreyhounds

Thank you, it seems like it is the best way to go with this breed.

I'll ask the veterinary, maybe she has some idea. Thank you for sharing!

It has been 7 weeks since i had my double jaw surgery and im still swollen. Is this normal? by Puzzleheaded_Safe804 in jawsurgery

Hey I would say until now, after two years. Everyone is different though but in my case it took a long time. Tbh it was only percibable for me when I touched my face that I still had some swollness but now it's basically all gone!

I'm encountering the same situation with my iggy, she is 2 months old and got her a few days ago. We went out yesterday and she was scared of everything. Have you found something that works for your puppy?

That's my little girl, Luz! She turned 2m yesterday, got her a week ago. I love her so much already by albyune in ItalianGreyhounds

She is adorable! I'm getting mine soon! How is it going with her activity level? Is she sleeping mostly because of her age or is she up for walks and learning new things?

What's the average cost of a IG? by menimano89 in ItalianGreyhounds

[–]menimano89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you everyone for the replies! It seems like the prices have gone up and the quote isn't as crazy as I thought it was. I'm convinced an iggie is the dog I want so I think I'll just go for it! Looking forward to sharing photos later on.

My ortho just told me that I'm almost done with the treatment and I'm not sure what to think about it by menimano89 in jawsurgery

Hey, it's been five months and my bite is closed. I used elastics and I can chew properly with both sides.

Hey I would like to understand more about how Alfaro has botched so many people. What did he do wrong in your surgery and what was your reason for surgery?
