When Porsche was a year old, she had to have 16 baby teeth extracted. A year ago, at age 12, had 13 adult teeth pulled. She has also survived mammary cancer for 5 years. She is now 13 and 1/2 years old. I took her in for another teeth cleaning...2 more teeth pulled. This time, when they did the pre-anesthetic blood work, she developed a large hematoma at the needle site. I love my baby girl, and this time she is clearly traumatized. I think this is our last teeth cleaning. I also think the only shots she will get is the yearly rabies shot.
Any thoughts?
