My dog broke one of his canines. My first thought is that it happened at the dog park (it was packed on Sat) or at his cage free doggy day care yesterday. But he only goes for 3 hours. Anyway, how it happened is probably moot now. It's broken, straight across horizontally and it looks like it must be painful.
But if it is, he isn't letting on. I believe it's non viable? Instead of pink pulp in the center, it's brown. But I only know what Dr. Google is telling me. Poor guy.
It couldn't have happened more than 5 days ago, most likely in the last 48 hours. He's eating as normal and taking treats happily.
Any words of wisdom? My initial search shows he'll probably need a root canal or extraction. The latter being less expensive.
If anyone has BTDT, I'd love to hear your experience and suggestions.
And I have to ask, can something like this wait until Monday? I'm guessing not but asking anyway because my 2 year old is pretty sick w a double ear infection and ruptured eardrum. If it's not an emergency, I don't want to take her out of the house tomorrow.
Too late to sign up for dog medical insurance? LOL! I was on the phone with them last week too. I had to call Home Again re: microchip subscription and agreed to listen to their spiel out of curiosity. :doh:
