Definately get the dental asap. Sounds like Periodontal disease. Very, very common, but left unchecked can be dangerous. In our case Francie had "Yorkie breath" and no visible signs aside from an incisor that constantly got things, cloth from toys, food caught in it. Really her teeth were white. Not until they go in can they tell. Be prepared because even if they are a bit loose the vet will pull them. The good news is your baby will be happier and healthier the sooner you do it. Also, anestesia gets harder for the little guys to take as they get older, so having extractions now will prevent potential problems in the future. Our Vet was a bit negligent in her diagnosis so we we really shocked. We're back on Bully's and they love them, a bit too much! Rawhide is good too. I sometime put a little low sodium chicken broth on them too! Good luck it will work out! |
