I have all sorts of anesthesia what would you like. Hello, I am the client!!! First of all I don't know what you have and second of all I don't know what all of them are. Then I asked if he gives IV fluids during procedure and he sort of rolled his eyes and said no. But if you insist on it I can. Needless to say I booked my appt. with a dental specialist that will probably cost 3x as much, but I feel better going to them. So still looking for a new vet...
good for you as you should have as i only have bc dentist do my dogs dentals and I would furious if my vet did what yours did to me. I have had a hard time as well finding a good vet and tend to go to internal medicine and specialists. I have jean dodds close to me so she does all our blood work and titers and i see dentist for teeth, dermatologist for allergy dog and internal medicine specialist for my ibd pancreatic dog - i have about 3 vets i work with depending on situation -- I know this sounds bad but i tend to like women as they are much more detailed and compassionate - the sad thing is when there is a good vet they are so darn busy they are not that availabe and the problem is you need a vet that is available when you have dogs with health issues
