Exclamation Wheezing following dental

Rico had his dental. I am sooo mad at the vet. They promised that they only use a mask. However, they said that since they had to remove several teeth, that they had to intubate him for safety. They gave him Propofol for pre and isoflurane for the anestetic. They called and told me he was doing great.

However, when I picked him up (we just got home), he has a wheezy sound to his breathing. They gave him some sort of liquid steroid to help and sent us home. The told us that it is normal due to a scratched throat.

If anyone has any knowledge or any suggestions, please advise. Prior to this, his trach was just fine.

Thank you,

Rico and his very worried mommy, Anna
