I knew Zoey had to get one baby tooth pulled but the vet contacted me saying she has a loose tooth that they recommend taking out. CAN be left alone but it will eventually become painful.

She said they'll send me home with antibiotics. I asked about pain killers and she said they'll be injecting/giving her pain killers that'll last 3 days.

My question is... should I play it safe and ask for pain killers anyway? Would that be overkill? She's only 5.5 lbs...
