My poor lil goblin chomped on a bone too hard and broke a tooth in the back of her mouth. She hates going to the vet, but will love being on a soft diet for a few weeks afterwards.

    Rosie looks very well loved, she’s adorable! Holy cow the devil on my shoulder would have me making so many sheep joke references to her during any given day, though. I feel like it’s ok to joke with your pets, even at their expense, they don’t understand the references, they never get hurt feelings, and they love the attention, and it brings them joy to see you happy and laughing, just don’t ask my fluff boulder of a cat what we talk about…

      Years ago I had a Dalmatian. He had one spot on his snout with enough whitespace on either side for a “D” and a “G” written in pen. I thought it was hilarious and he had no concerns over the matter. Reactions from others were mixed though none changed my stance.

    Aww poor little bb, she may scream-whine at you when it’s done. My little mini schnauzer did that to me when we picked her up from a tooth extraction

      Thank you for the warning! I’m not worried about her recovery. Rosie has always bounced back from crazy medical stuff. She was bouncing around the next day after her spay and did the same after the two foreign body removal surgeries she had. She took like 2 days to bounce back after almost dying from ingesting a neurotoxin that was in a mouse she found in the yard. She’s a lil goblin and doesn’t get toys she can’t digest and doesn’t get to be outside without supervision anymore. Her brother, my beagle, had to be put down because they shared the mouse. I’d let them out into the yard so they could play while I showered and the beagle was seizing not long after that. We got home from trying to save him and Rosie was in the beginnings of seizures. We managed to save her and she’s back to being a goofball. She has some memory issues from the brain damage caused by the seizures and s 107 degree fever, but we are reintroducing her to the things she’s forgotten. I think the ordeal calmed her down a bit too. She’s not as crazy and is a better listener and we’ve gotten even closer. I’ve been told that she’d make a great service dog because she knows when I’m gonna have a panic attack before I do and she herds me to chairs when my heart condition acts up.
