yeah usually they will not eat due to bad teeth as my demi would just lay there and not eat as much - did he have loose teeth in his mouth? If absesses in mouth they will not eat it is too painful. I see more not eating when teeth issues - teeth happen fast too as my demi had one loose tooth i freaked and by the time i got urine and blood work prior to anesthesia and a dentist second opinion she had 10 loose teeth i freaked out but i thought petzlife gel was going to work as used for a year to reverse tartar and did not save us. She did not have much tartar at all either which is why i was so surprised
Ask if anyone was with him last night as one thing that upsets me is when they leave the dog there all night and no one is there with him checking on him all night as this happens alot after spay and neuters and then the owner asks if anyone will be there over night and vet says NO - not cool. I brought mine home for spay, neuters and all dentals never had to leave over night - if they are with him 24/7 then ok but i bet no one was with him and hope i am wrong
