What a Dental Day LOL

The dogs played and played and 13 dogs got their teeth done. Roxie, Sage and Misty was one of them and what a magnificent job. We are so pleased.

Here is the gallery.

If you do not receive your before and after photos by tomorrow night, let us know.

Dorothy was here with Pixie and Leo so it was wonderful to see her. Come back. there's a heck of a lot of wine he didn't give you. I knew I should have collected it.

Lucy the doodle has departed and as you will see in the gallery she was playing up a storm with Rebel.

It was supposed to be my day off but with all the craziness and me organizing everything as lord knows who else can do it, my day off is tomorrow. I truly need it.

On Monday night off to the Keg with Ronnie and Elana. It's her birthday. A girls night celebration.

They tell me the comments are working. Please test it.

The dogs had an outstanding day today. It was cooler. You could tell they were excited that it wasn't so hot.

Till tomorrow.

I'll bring up a piece of that chocolate hazelnut cheesecake for Dennis tmrw, Saturday, 10am onwards, that will give you enough time to collect those other bottles.😁
Didn't get the pictures but I have a good idea what they were before, I do brush and scale them myself, I'm glad they were both well behaved for the cleaning.

No need but I just dug out 13 bottles for you. Now to find a box or 2. LOL

It’s very encouraging to hear the doggy dental people are doing such a good job! Laci is scheduled with same company next month. She has a Wellness check with Vet the following week. It will be interesting to see what he notices about her sparkling teeth. I had asked him about this company a year ago, and his comment was that it would be like me going to the hairdressers to get my teeth cleaned. 🤣
I’ll let him know “after” the examination.

Yes, it surely cuts into their $$ and this company has a lot of experience. I am impressed. They can't extract if needed but they can tell you if you need an extraction or 2. You could clean twice a year and still be half the cost of the vet or less. I get why they prefer you to go to them but comparing it to you going to get your teeth cleaned at the hairdresser is his way of not wanting to lose the business. When a dog like Roxie who is 10 plus but very healthy, I would not put her under for a teeth cleaning.

August 28, 2021 | Registered CommenterDarlah

Darlah, I did make it clear that if any issues are detected that I’m expecting them to refuse service & recommend a Vet consult snd am happy with that. I was assured that would happen given circumstances, so all’s good!
While I realize Vets don’t want to lose business, I also believe they’re uninformed. I hope that changes. Everything should change or else we’d never move forward. Being an innovative person, I’m always amazed and a bit frustrated by that mind-thought.

Partaking of 1 bottle tonight, thanks so much, I said to Nathan 'wow, that's a lot of wine'.
Hope Dennis enjoyed the cheesecake, have a bite yourself Darlah and Nathan.
I think the vets should start working together with these 'cosmetic' cleaners. Currently I can bet lots of doggy parents do nothing because of the vet costs but if they can at least start with this cleaning and then honest referral to vets, it will help everyone especially the dogs.

August 28, 2021 | Unregistered CommenterDorothy,Tom,Pixie and Leo

Deb: They do that and do not charge you. There is no concern. They are highly ethical and good at what they do. You will be happy.

Dorothy:

I think Dennis ate it. LOL

Yes many can't afford the cost at the vets nor do they want the yearly anesthesia so they don't do a thing.
