Don't you worry she will be in our prayers. I'm so glad you called, I'd hate to see
her have to go under a second time but I imagine they would have called you once
they saw the growth............but what if they couldn't get ahold of you. Good
move Pat.

latter years of their life. We love visitors though.

Oops, sorry. I went back and re-read that. Thanks.

It kept prying on my mind and I finally called them at 5:00 & said we'll be bringing Muffie in at 4 p.m. Monday and asked if we were going to be able to meet the doctor that will be doing the surgery.

She said "Oh no, he only works in the morning!"

I said "Do you really think if I brought Muffie in at 4 p.m. Monday for a dental procedure where she has to be put to sleept and we didn't get to see the doctor actually doing the surgery that I would leave her there?"

I also said "You need to tell the front desk people to make sure that anyone bringing animals in for surgery that they at least MEET the vet that will be doing the surgery."

That is when we made the Monday morning appointment to meet him.

She was very appreciative of my suggestion, apologized and said she would make sure everyone is aware of this suggestion. She thought it was something that they should put into practice/

So we'll take her Monday morning about 10:15 to meet the vet as I want HIM personally to look at her teeth! Guess we'll be taking her back at 4:00 to leave her then.

I couldn't believe it! I am sooooo glad that I finally called and asked. Keep Muffie in your prayers Tuesday morning. She won't be coming home till sometime Tuesday afternoon.

Lots of prayers coming your way Pat. Try to stay calm.
Easier said than done I am sure.

Please let us know the outcome.

We're back from "meeting" the Vet that will be doing the teeth cleaning tomorrow. He said he'll probably have to pull a few teeth. He didn't think there was really a growth - perhaps that's where a tooth was. He is going to clean her teeth tomorrow. We take her back at 4:15 this afternoon and leave her overnight.

Thanks for your prayers.

Bo is 9.5 years old
Male
I have had hims since he was 7 months old
He has had his tonsils removed ,IBS and now pancreatitis. Pancreatitis I mix his meds with his food twice a days. His meds I give him cost about 50 a month. Now all I feed him is Hills/id both wet and dry. Before that I was giving him ONE dry and pedigree lamb and vegetables. He is pretty active and as long as I watch what he eats he does great. His teeth get cleaned twice a year. I brush his teeth but that is not enough. He was eating Hills/td but he cannot as much now that he has pancreatitis. I will try sending pics when I get home.

crystalsmom · 01-30-2006, 03:19 PM

Pat, so glad to hear that was not a growth. Don't worry about her missing
a few teeth with Crystal I worried she wouldn't be able to eat and it was
no problem the next day.

Welcome Bo, so nice to have you and your Mommy here. We would like to
have Bo's Birthday too if you know it.

Thank you so much. I appreciate your thought and prayers for Muffie. We can pick her up between 4-6 tomorrow. She's at the vet office spending the night now.

So glad to hear that the growth is nothing to worry about.

I know you hate leaving Muffie over night, so please let us know how she is doing when you bring her home tomorrow.

Take care.

Here is Bubba!
He is 10 years old.
Male
I have had him since he was 10 months old.
He has slept with my son every night since we brought him home.
No health problems
No extra vitamins - too much vitamins is just as bad as not enough.
Champion Sired.

He is still fiesty as ever, but his dark blue color he had is now light.
