Same here. Our total is usually around $250. The dental itself is about $150.00 then you add IV, Injections, blood work and etc

Dental's here with blood work and meds run about $400 plus extractions. No $80 dentals..... At least not here.

Mine DO need them yearly. Sugar could go every six months!

Glad she's going to the vet, hope she feels better soon. Definately sounds like she's in some pain.

I had a rescue that needed a dental $900 after bloodwork etc., I've never seen a dental less than $300 in my area.

I had a foster that had 11 teeth removed! Thank god we had a prior deal set up with the vet for a flat fee, otherwise her dental would have been over $1000.

I don't mean to scare you but I would not put off a visit to the vet. Our precious Lolita went through this and she had a bad heart. It started out as you describe and got worse. Unfortunately for her nothing could be done but there are meds if caught in time can help.

Just seeing this thread now. OP, I do hope you got your pup in to see a vet. I doubt that her breathing heavy and fast is not from needing a dental. If you have not gotten her to a vet yet, I suggest you do it ASAP! It very well could be cardiac related.

Did you get your pup to the vet on 12/8 or 12/9, as indicated above? What did the vet say?

+1 I lost my first Yorkie (he was about 11 months old when I got him) before the age of 3 due to cardiac problems and the description of what is going on with this pup really bothers me. I hope there is something different going on.
