I live in Vienna down the street from McLean and it is VERY expensive to live
here! My other dog, Twister is due to get a dental cleaning and it could cost
anywhere up to $800! They charge $50.00 just for an office visit.
Unbelievable! I am going to call my mom's vet and see what they charge. She
lives in a more rural area of Maryland.

I would do it when she gets spayed but I am not planning on spaying her.
I am planning on breeding Cricket. So she would have to be sedated just for
her tooth extrations. I am going to ask around at other vet clinics because it
seems most people are saying it cost them $5 per tooth! My vet is not even
close to that in price! I live in a very expensive area, Northern Virginia,
which is near Washington, DC. Maybe I will just have to drive further out to
find a cheaper price.

Thankfully, I haven't had to experience it, but yes, it is pretty
common among chis. Whish is why a lot of people decided to try to do a
spay/neuter and a teeth extraction under the same anesthesia...saves money and
only a one time danger....

Subject: [Chihuahuas] Chi's Retaining Baby Teeth
Has anyone else had a Chi who retained some of their baby teeth? My 7
month old Chi, Cricket still has all four (2 upper and 2 lower) baby canine
teeth and the adult teeth are growing in next to them! All four of the baby
teeth are not falling out and not even loose. I asked the vet and he said they
will have to be pulled. It is going to cost between $180 and $450, depending
on the sedation/anesthesia used! The vet said this is a common problem in the
smaller dogs. I had no idea. Any thoughts?
