had a tiny female I took in years ago....she was too small to put under, and the vet just put her on a low dose antibiotic....she had her little chews, and that helped get the loose teeth worked out....and that antibiotic dosing prevented organ involvment from bacteria from bad teeth. Bless your heart for taking this tiny little girl in...my little bitty baby girl also had her own little playlen...she could not play with any other dogs for fear of injuring her....she ended up having a pretty long life (13 years) and she never knew what it was to play with other dogs, so she did not miss that...it was just she and I and she was happy, I think.....I had her absolutely spoiled rotten! |
Thank you <3
I do have her on clindamycin. She has been on it about the whole 7 weeks Ive had her. I have several different chews and she shows a bit of interest but just isnt really chewing much on them. Did most of your little ones teeth fall out? I hate the idea of waiting for her teeth to fall but sadly that may be her only option.
I know the previous owner that had her kept her alone for 7 years so like you said she knows nothing of playing with other dogs. She is super sweet and happy just being held and loved. One of my dogs lays up against her pen now and then and when I hold her sitting on the couch they sniff her and lay next to me so she isnt completely isolated she just isnt let on the floor with them like you said for fear of injury. I have another very rambuncious one year old foster who would never intentionally hurt her but is just to active and playful to even get near. I can see how easy it is to spoil them rotten...we are well on our way there....she has completely stollen my heart. I hope she can live to be 13like yours. I read the hydrocephelus babies dont live as long as others
