Thanks for the support. I'm so sorry you all had to go through this kind of hell on earth. My animals are my babies and best friends. They always love us unconditionally, don't they? I've lost 4 dogs in 12 years. I have my 4 year old female here. I looked at her teeth and didn't like what I saw. I took her for a checkup. For her age, her teeth are bad. The vet said it's because she eats pecans. She's been eating them all her life! I have to make an appointment to have her teeth cleaned. I'm gonna take her to my regular vet. The local vets charge way too much, although my dogs are worth it. You can't put a price on their health. I don't have insurance, though. Do any of you have pics of your babies? All of mine have been miniature schnauzers.
Chatnoire: Thanks!
Doc and Ferret, I also appreciate your reading and replying to this thread. Ferret, I noticed in the other thread that you have had fish. Do you have any other pets?
