OK
I appreciate your point of view. I do, however, believe that if you have been working at trying to keep your pup's mouth clean, they have gotten used to brushing, scraping, spraying, etc.
Just for the record, I would never terrify or deliberately torture or hurt my dog in any way. I am not trying to be argumentative, but I feel as if I have been portrayed as a mad scientist type that was completely uncaring.
My dogs trusted me and required very little restraint. Small amounts of work were done frequently and a little soothing massage administered at the same time along with a bit of lavender always helped the attitude. They were never held still for hours or repeatedly rested an worked on again. Such an idea is absolutely dreadful and unfathomable.
Fortunately I never came upon a pus pocket etc. If I had, I would have visited my vet. By being diligent in my care, I believe I was more than just lucky.
Please do me the kindness in the future of questioning something that may not seem quite right to you instead of making an automatic assumption that you know with absolute certainty that you are right, I am wrong, and I deserve to be lectured. I know we all jump to conclusions some times. I was a bit taken aback, but not angry. I,also, have a tendency to say what I feel straight up, but have learned that i'm better off taking a deep breath first and thinking about it a bit. |
