Anal glad burst visit is when they gave "dex" - my wife took him, so not sure exact reason - i assumed shot was to reduce pain.
Thanks for your advice - will see first if blood work sheds any light. |
If his teeth are good it is genetics and you (and him) got lucky. What they eat does not save them from the periodontal disease so many yorkies get.
The dex would have been for the inflammation is my guess.
Hopefully the blood work will shed some light. Please keep us posted.
