| Murphy is at the vet I just dropped Murphy off at the vet. He has to have TEN baby teeth pulled! I trust my vet and I'm sure everything will be fine, but I'm so worried. Please pray for my little man today. Thank you.

| Prayers for Murphy and Hugs for you. I hate when they have to go in, too. But you're a good mommy to get this done for him.

| Sending positive thoughts and warm wishes for a speedy recovery. I know how you feel as my baby is going in Monday to have a couple retained baby teeth extracted. It is a worry whenever they have to have procedures such as this done. My thoughts are with you and little Murphy.

| Thank you so much! I'm still waiting to hear from the vet that Murphy's out and well.

| 10 TEETH?!? Murphy is going to make a bundle from the tooth fairy. I see some very special treats coming his way. |

Actually, I never found any of the baby teeth he did loose so I told the vet techs that I wanted them to save the pulled teeth for me. I can't describe the looks on their faces just before they started laughing. I finally convinced them I was serious and they assured me that the Dr would save all his little teeth for mommy.

| I just called the vet and they haven't even started on him! I plan on picking him up when I get off work in 2 hours. Will this be enough recovery time for him after anasthesia?

| Is he having injectable anasthesia or being masked down? My baby is being maske down for her procedure as an extra precaution. If he hasn't been done and you were expecting to pick him up in two hours, I think you will be waiting. LOL @ Toof Fairy! Oh boy! An excuse to buy my baby extra treats! Woohoo. Sheesh if Murphy is getting ten toofs out I wonder what loot he will get? Extra snuggles for Murphy this weekend!

| What's the average age that you would need to get their baby teeth pulled? Like, when should they not have them anymore?

Aw, thank you! Oh, Murphy has lots of special treats waiting for him at home lol! The vet finally called and said he would be ready to go by the time I got there. They said he was doing great, and they remembered to keep the teef for me!

| I'm not sure there is a certain 'age'. Each puppy is different. I was hoping to wait until Murphy was at least one year old to have this done, in case they fell out on their own. But they were starting to affect his big boy teeth and one was a little crooked. Besides, Murphy has so many baby teeth left I don't think they all ever would've come out without help. I wouldn't wait too much past one year, though. The retained teeth can really increase plaque and tooth decay.
