Great! Your vet is obviously a very caring person and a good doctor. JoAnn ----- Original Message ----- From: "Barbara Cooke" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, February 25, 2002 11:44 AM Subject: Re: [CKCS-L] teeth cleaning
> At the risk of being flamed for animal cruelty or something, here is my experience from last Friday: > I took Dixie, age 3 1/2, in for her annual check-up. We discussed vaccinations and decided none were necessary. My vet said Dixie needed her teeth scaled. Then she said, "I've never done a dog while it was conscious, but I have done several good-natured cats. Do you want me to try it?" I said to go ahead and try. > > With a vet tech helping to hold Dixie in a sitting position, my vet scaled her teeth then and there. It took about 15 minutes. Dixie is a big sissy and yelps at the slightest insult, but she didn't make a sound during the procedure. End result - clean teeth, no anesthesia, no whopping vet bill. The vet charged me $30. Dixie seemed no worse for the wear and acted and ate normally the rest of the day. The vet said that Cavaliers are really wonderful. I was pleased. Dixie doesn't like the vet's office, but she never has liked it. > > -- > Barb Cooke > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Galveston Island, Texas ========================================================= "Magic Commands": to stop receiving mail for awhile, click here and send the email: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=SET%20CKCS-L%20NOMAIL to start it up gain click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=SET%20CKCS-L%20MAIL E-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] for assistance.
