Had Mikko's teeth cleaned today, everything went well. Was not going to have Lassie's teeth cleaned because of her age, she's 15.5 years. Vet said it was up to me. Lassie is healthy other then her back hips. So decided on going ahead and get it done in March.
Well after having to reschedule twice, (vet's mom and dad's house burnt in the fires of western KS) everything went fine. Lassie blood work came back and she was in good shape.
Lassie got a reprieve today. My vet's parents had their home burn to the ground in the wildfires in Western KS. He is trying to assist them. We reschedule for another day.
Buttons had hers done last month. She had 3 more extractions and did well. She is 7 years old now. It's important to keep their teeth in good shape - you are doing the right thing. Lassie will be ok - the vets know what they are doing and will be very careful with anesthetic. I had Andy's teeth cleaned when he was older and all went well. Try not to worry!
