I am taking him back to the vet on Monday and I'm afraid of what they will tell me. Does anyone know if there is any kind of surgery to help. I'm just afraid I'll have to make the decision on Monday whether to put him to sleep or not. He also has digestive problems and he has to wear diapers cause he leaks poop. Am I being selfish keeping him alive? Is he suffering? This is the hardest thing I have ever had to do.
before making a decision like this i strongly recommend consulting a board certified dentist who specializes in oral surgery as maybe they can some how close up the holes surgically
