I don't wanna put him under just for 1 tooth (plus it's $$$), all the others fell out when he was about 7 months and his canines were last to fall out. Just 1 more left. I don't want to give him rawhide for obvious reasons but so many friends have told me that will be the thing to get it out. A bully stick (GROSSSSSS!!!!!)????? He is CONSTANTELY chewing on his orka and rubber nylabone. I think it's itching to come out, but wanna help it along.....SUGGESTIONS PLEASE!!!!!????
The smell from his mouth is the same funk from when he was teething so I don't think the last tooth is infected.......  |
My Buddy still has one canine also..and he is now 8 months. We've been playing a lot of tug of war, and letting him chew on his bully stick (his favorite) and a dental nylabone. I agree with you in not wanting to spend the $ just to put Snickers under for 1 tooth...I feel the same about Buddy. Hopefully Buddy's tooth will fall out by the time he has to go in for his next rabies shot in January. The vet said that he would pull it out then if is hasn't already fallen out...but I don't like the idea of having my 3.5 lb yorkie go under. Just try a lot of tug of war...it helped get the one canine out for Buddy...now we are working on the other one.
