Dogs have lots of teeth

At the dog’s annual service, the vet noticed trauma on two teeth. Looks like Breezy had chewed on something too enthusiastically, and those teeth would have to come out.

That operation was yesterday. While the dog was recovering, the vet called with a shock. The x-rays showed up damage the vet hadn’t been able to see. “We’ve taken out five teeth. And she was missing three.”

Eight teeth down. Is she going to be able to survive? “Oh, yes, dogs have lots of teeth”.

And so they do: 42, apparently.

She’s fine.
