I don't post that much but I have posted that my husband and I adopted two Yorkie boys (not brothers) last November after our last Yorkie companion of over 14 years passed on Oct. 3. 2010. Now it's time for our smallest guy, Angus, to have his first dental since coming to live with us and I am so nervous.

Yes, Eddie had dentals and he always was fine but I always get super nervous. I lost one of my closest companions, a male doberman, during a dental in 1997 because he had von Willebraun's. We didn't know there was even such a disease and he had never had any kind of injury before that caused bleeding. He needed a tooth pulled. I was there in the room with him and of course I gave permission for the vet to pull it, and he bled to death over a period of several days. It's like hemophilia and the bleeding would never stop even though we got human medicine from the local hospital and did everything we could.

I'm really nervous about Angus going in. I already love him so much I would be devastated if anything happened to him. Would you all just keep him in your prayers on Monday 28th. I'll update after and let everyone know he came through fine. I've known this vet almost all my life and trust him very much. He operated on Eddie twice and did a dental on him right after we moved back here and he is a good vet.

I know how supportive everyone here is and I appreciate any you can give.
