Hello everyone,
I need some help and advise. My poor bun is from the RSPCA. I got him 07/2014. He started having upper respiratory issues such as leaky eye, snot sneezing and drooling/pulling hair from his chin around late 2014. He was seen at a vet April – May 2015. They tried different treatments and none had worked. Finally he had these x rays done and his teeth trimmed. I was told pulling his teeth will not work because they are J hooked and they won’t be able to get all of it causing it to grow back.
The symptoms went away and recent came back last week. I took him to another vet today and he now has 2 abscess on each side of his chin where the teeth are going through the jaw bone and was recommend I put him down very soon because his teeth are so bad. I am going to take him to his original vet for a second opinion.
He is still eating and drinking as normally. I made a cardboard cone for him so he won’t lick his chin.
The cost of all previous treatments come up to 900$.
Has anyone seen teeth this bad? Any opinions on my situation?
