DOG BREATH

What is it about a puppy's breath that draws you to it? After all, it does have a bit of a skunk smell. Nevertheless, most people love puppy breath. I always have, and I love puppies(and dogs). Now I know that Mandi thinks dogs are gross and Michelle refuses to have any kind of pet in her house. . . . . . . . Pam, where did we go wrong?

Unfortunately, those sweet puppies turn into dogs. There is good reason to be offended if someone calls you "dog breath". Adult dogs have stinky breath. Now take an old dog with a few rotten teeth. That is the situation we've been dealing with. Since Morty has adjusted quite well to our recent move I am no longer making appointments for euthenasia. So something had to be done.


Here's poor little Mort after his ordeal. He was put to sleep and had all the tarter scraped off his teeth. They cut up above the gums to get them really clean. We had them give him a pain shot that lasted 24 hours. He came home all weak and shaky. He fell down a couple of times trying to go potty outside in the snow. He really wanted to eat but when Melynda gave him a little taste of pizza it made him throw up several times. (He managed to wobble to the door so we could put him out.) It was so sad.
Now why do you suppose the vet gave us the rotten teeth that he pulled? When I saw them in the bag I couldn't believe it. Now this is gross!

Just look at his pearly whites now.

They threw in stuff to help us keep to just dog breath, not rotten dog breath. Hope it works cause it cost a pretty penny!
