So Ozzy was neutered last Tuesday. I had requested a specific vet as he is the one my breeder uses and I really like him and he has loads of experience with Yorkies. He shares his practice with one other younger vet. This young vet is really nice and he gave Ozzy one of his puppy shots (I had scheduled for the older doc but got the young one) and said Ozzy had a level 1 LP in his right knee. I was not happy but a level 1 isn't to bad. Well 3 weeks later we went back for the next shot and got the older vet. He saw the LP diagnosis and felt his knees and said this dog does not have LP. I don't know what he felt but Ozzy's knees are clear. I was really happy but a bit disappointed in the other vet.
So anyway..I was worried about Ozzy's having not lost any baby teeth when I brought him to be neutered. Well when I checked him in the young vet met with us and was going to be the surgeon
I had requested the older vet and AGAIN they gave me the young one. Well I had to do the surgery that day for many reasons..I asked him to check his teeth and he did. He told me that Ozzy had all his adult teeth! I was shocked and asked him "even the canines??? I didn't see any teeth come out and I had been watching closely!" He said yes even the canines I probably vacuumed them up and did not notice. I was really happy to hear this as I didn't want to have to bring him back and have teeth pulled in a few months. I told him again I was shocked are you sure and he said yes.
Ok so saturday 3 of Ozzy's little fromt teeth fell out!!!!!!!
I don't think he had lost ANY baby teeth at the time the vet looked. I mean those little ones are the first ones out right? The canines are the last..
So I'm kind of upset that this vet was so wrong and even after I asked him to double check he still said they were adult teeth. I really have lost some faith in this practice. Do you think I should call and speak with the older vet and tell him? I hope my Baby doesn't need to go under AGAIN to remove teeth now
What do you all think? I will definately not see the young vet again that's for sure, but should I let the practice owner know about the second mistake this young vet made???
