Hi everyone

So Dexter and Gizmo are now 14 months old and still have their baby canine teeth. We read on here that teeth should naturally have fallen out by this age, so waited until now to see the vet. He wanted to check the dogs before scheduling the procedure.

Anyway at the appointment the vet found that Dexter is lacking enamel on his adult teeth and apparently needs a special procedure (husband's words). Any idea what this 'procedure' is? They are both scheduled for Monday, Gizmo extraction £60, Dexter extraction and 'procedure' £140.

Thanks

FYI we think the enamel thing is because Dexter had a bad case of pharyngitis when he was 4 months old.
