| I just googled lock jaw....dogs dont have the ability to lock their jaws..people think that pit bulls lock their jaws but really they dont they just have a very strong grip that takes alot to pry apart... This must be very scary for you but we are here for you..please keep us updated.. Dawn |

| Ok you guys i feel kinda silly now..So i rushed her to the Vet and the guy in the front desk said.."Oh that looks really bad", i was like "Then help her please dont just look at her" ..So he took her in and asked me to fill out some papers, then the vet comes out with a little small piece of a lego and said. "Does this look familiar", I was in shock and look at it and said,Yes that belongs to my son..So What happen was that Kisses had that small piece in her mouth and when she saw me come in she got to happy that she for got about the lego in her mouth and it got stuck all the way in the back of her mouth and even before i took her in i put my pinky finger in her mouth to see if she had something..Guess i missed it ..Anyway i really glad it wasn't any worse and thank you guys so much...

| I wish I had seen this sooner before your trip to the vet. I immediately knew what it was as my Tinkerbell has done this 3 times with my son's army men. We have had to throw all army men away because she is obsessed with finding them and chewing off their heads. The plastic locks her back teeth together and I have had to pry it out while she is flipping out scared. I'm glad you're baby is ok! |
