So my dog is not the only one who hates the gardeners and their noisy tools! I must say I hate them too. Just blow dust from one place to another!
The poor drapes behind the windows took all the heat!! I think the teeth were loose anyway and this was the last straw. Good in many ways as it made me notice the loose teeth.
The vet had only examined my boy the day before and apart from a little tartar on the molars all looked well. I was going to do a dental next February. So when I took him in as an emergency on the following Monday and was shown an X-ray from his last dental, I wondered how the teeth could have stayed so long. I know from my personal bad teeth that we have so much more bone to secure teeth than these little dogs.I agree the X-rays are essential to see what is going on unseen below the gum line. The rest of his mouth and gums looked good from on top! There was also infection at the root bases.
This vet is very good and some don’t like him as he likes to cover everything and they don’t like the costs! Nor do I but I usually do what he suggests. He explains everything and gives options and costs for what he thinks is needed for best care. He even came in on his day off to check the pre op tests.
So all I have to do now is to keep the dog away from windows on gardener day. I know I have to get him out of the house when the cleaners use the vacuum as he hates that too.
I have had wood blinds destroyed...finally learned to just raise them. It is insane on Fridays when they come. Nothing I have ever tried has stopped it.

That's great you have a vet you like!
