I was so worried about him going under. He came out of it like a trooper but his bite is permanently distorted due to those baby teeth. His Bottom canines don't grow straight up, they sort of are at an angle like a wart hog but not to that extent, you can't see them unless he is catching a ball or something. He is not a show dog so that's ok, but I wish I had known this could happen and I would have acted sooner.
jjflash: Did the vet check or say anything about you pup's liver enzymes? Did they do pro-op bloodwork? Difficulty in coming out of anesthesia is a symptom of Liver Shunt.. he really should be tested for it...
