My girl needs to have her double teeth removed, they are bleeding but are not coming out, and since she is going in for surgery anyway, I decided I wanted dew claws removed, they are fine but if they get caught on something they can rip and then need to be removed., so since she is going in anyway, I figure it would just save a surgery down the road.
She catches them quite a bit. If they do rip and have to have surgery it seems a lot when they can be removed with her teeth.
Apparently she has a molar that has caused a lot of her problems, and I did not know molars on an almost 7 month old would even be there let alone have to come out.
I was also told she had k9's that needed to come out and was told they would not come out on there own at this point. I am no vet. so I hope they are right, surgery is going to be over 300.00.
thanks all for the replies to me and prayers., pooh's mum
