The vet believes the teeth being so bad may have caused this...glad I found the little guy...he was not taken care of before. I think my vet will let me make payments...otherwise I don't know how to pay for this...sigh. I LOVE my vet he is so careing. His words"you saved his life once and we will work to make his life even better. The teeth need to be done asap...so we will wait for the three days see what the next steps are. They will probably clean his teeth then but not nueter til later...They just called back and will let me pay over 6 months...may I just say again I really appreciate my vet. |
what are you feeding him?
What was high on the blood work? Usually if periodontal it is high globulins
My demi had periodontal disease at 4 she lost 27 teeth
by a bc dentist when they usually can save teeth so i know what blood work looks like for periodontal disease
If kidneys the bun and creatinine and bun/creatinine ratio so sounds like those were the three values that were high?
If creatinine is high then that is a bigger problem than if bun is high
If it is kidneys please join K9KIDNEY on yahoogroups.com immediately they know alot about this
