She also gave me an estimate based on his weight and said it would run me about $300, including some baby teeth that need to come out. As for the tubing, Nikko does not have collapsed trachea but I thought I have heard that the tubes can hurt their throats if they use one that is too big. I guess I just wanted to cover all the angles. I think I will go through with it, mostly because I know it is the right thing to do, but I am not sure I want to do it there. |
I think all off us have a fear when are dogs go under for any type of procedure and it's a normal feeling. I only have 2 of my 6 that have been spayed/nuetered. But, all have had to have baby teeth pulled and I don't ever breath a sigh a relief until I get that phone call. My vet usually has the front office know as soon as my dogs open their eyes that I'm to be called.
