Dry Mouth Has anyone ever heard of a yorkie getting dry mouth? I sold one of my little studs and I'm going back to get him because the lady said she took him to the vet and her vet said he had dry mouth and could pass it on the the puppies.He does drink alot of water but I have had him to three vets and not one has mentioned this.Any opinions on this? Faith |
Well, that's a new one. Are his salivary glands just not working right? |
Not sure.I have taken him to the vet many times and nothing has ever been said. This lady was supposed to give me her vets phone # so I could fax their info to my vet but she as of yet no phone #.just keeps giving me excuses.I have a feeling she never even took him to the vet. Faith |
dry mouth Never heard of it... |
It's called xerostomia and is thought to be immune system related. People get it when they are on chemo, but it is very uncommon in dogs. Here's a link to browse. http://www.merckvetmanual.com/mvm/in...m/bc/23123.htm |
