| Well we all know many times it is better for the dog(s) to be in rescue where they can get the vetting and care for they need and deserve.

She is a YTer and I honestly hope that she and her friend, who is also on YT, sees this post. Those poor yorkies are going from the kettle to the fire. I have seen both these women short cut on vetting their personal pups and they call themselves rescuers. Sometimes, as you know, the word rescue sounds good but is not in reality rescue.

| Poor girl. She has no lower jaw? How does that happen? Before (4 years ago): Now: Whatever happened to her, thankfully she is out of that situation. I know Dolly is already 9, and perhaps tinies don't age well, but Toto is 10 already and not looking like that at all, and he was rescued only 2 years ago.

| I don't understand how you can't have a lower jaw. Like the whole thing is gone? What about the skin? I can understand a 5 year old never having a dental and understandable she possibly could have never had one before she was rehomed. Uni is 8 and has only had one. But when they get older it's something more on my mind. Reminds me of Safari, but she always had really big problems with her teeth, many years before her surrender.

| Things can spiral out of control very quickly. How wonderful that so many have stepped forward to help in this situation. |

| My dog Winston has lost 10 teeth and just turned four. He's also had three professional cleanings by a vet dentist and one by a general vet when he was taken into rescue at 10 mos old. So even with regular home care (daily brushing) and regular dentals, he's got a short upper jaw and crowding. It's anatomical. Contrast that with a 15 yo whose had two dentals in all that time and very clean teeth. Up until a few months ago I brushed his teeth every could of days and barely spent time on them. So I really think that this issue of teeth isn't always a neglect issue. If lower incisors are not removed when they're diseased, then canines are at risk. When canines are at risk the jaw can break. Add a tiny dog and a breed with weak jaws and you have the setting for this. That's why they took out my dog's lower incisors now and his uppers are probably coming out next time so that this doesn't happen. Not everyone has a vet dentist though and cleanings are great but not for issues some dogs like my winston have. Dolly could be the same.

| Our Kyra gets yearly dentals and regular brushing plus dental chews and every time she goes in for a dental some of her teeth fall out during dental. The vet says because her mouth is so tiny her teeth just don't have good roots. No matter how hard we try she gets plaque back within weeks of her dentals. She is a little less that 3 lbs so I think maybe sometimes size is a factor, not sure.

| From the OKYR facebook: https://www.facebook.com/oklahoma.re...type=1&theater **Not available for adoption** Chelsea went to the Doctor this past Thursday. Overall, she had a good visit. She has ear mites that are being taken care of and was scheduled for a much needed Dental. She is now up to date on all her shots. During her visit, the Doctor did not hear her heart murmor. She weighs 11.2lbs but FosterMom is working on her losing 2lbs. Chelsea is still learning to go outside to go potty. Her favorite thing? Snuggling!!!

| Dolly breaks my heart, that poor sweet little girl. I agree the others look like they are fed well but need a good bath and grooming. I will be honest, I cannot imagine having 8 dogs, the one I have is pretty much all I can handle on a full time basis. When I have a foster or babysit I am constantly wondering where I will find the time for things (I do but it has to be a priority). I also worry about their owner, whatever situation she got into it is sad. I hope she is okay and has some friends and family to lean on.
