How likely is it that Strawberry will not need any pulled? I mean, she did lose all her bottom front ones so I know that is good.
I'm really bothered that some vets don't mention this, perhaps he doesn't treat that many Yorkies, and doesn't understand that nearly all have to have some removed. I believe it's the canine teeth that they have the most problem losing on their own. I would talk to the vet about this, he should be aware of this fact.
