Vet visit number ?


Poor Tucker Boy!  Mike noticed he had a red spot on his paw.  It turned out to be a rather large growth between his toe and paw pad.  So off we go to the vet - AGAIN!  The doc looked at his foot and also his goofy tooth (that's the tooth sticking out on the bottom - see pic above).  Both were assessed ($100 later) to be wait and observe problems.  The "tumor" was needle biopsied and is benign and the tooth hopefully will fall out on it's own.  At least we know it's nothing serious.  But I can't tell you how many times that poor dog has been to the vet.
Here's Olive and her goofy teeth.  That's the result of having 
advanced periodontal disease and having 20 teeth pulled!
