Zoe By My Side- Our Journey with Cushings

New vet left message for me today. Koko's labs are perfect.

His thyroid is perfect
Kidney values perfect
red and white blood count perfect

everything is PERFECT

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

I'm going to go cry now, tears of relief!!!!

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee OK you can cry for 10 mins, then we have some cake to celebrate!!! YAY KOKO!! :D:D:D:D:D

and stool sample was good too no parasites:D:D:D

Im going to take Koko out for ice cream!!!!

What do you think is the deal with his teeth? I know the small white pups can be prone to bad teeth. Trish- is it bad for him to be put under again? They said they would tweak it so his recovery was not so long and hard.

I guess I should go ahead and do the dental and start brushing his teeth. That should go over real well with Koko:rolleyes:

Addy:
So happy to hear your news on KoKo. You really needed some good news! Have a little celebration with him! It is so nice to hear good things isn't it? Blessings

I don't think it would be bad for him to go under, all his tests are looking good and if they take into account what happened last time they can adjust to give him better outcome??? I would talk over with the vet, just so you are loud and clear. Most times after a dental they are back to normal by the next day, so hopefully all will go well!!

Flynn is so not keen on anything going in his mouth, tooth brushing is not going to happen. Last check his teeth had some tartar but no nasties that needed removing, I just make sure he has something to crunch and that is enough for him.

Yum, ice cream!! :D:D You both deserve some!!!

OH! Yay!! So glad to read this. Go koko!!!!! Ice cream all around, I'll have oreo I think. :) :)

That is fabulous news Addy. I think some dogs are more prone to dental problems, especially the little white ones. Start giving him some dental treats and get some of that tarter removal spray or gel something to get it to loosen so when he bites into the dental bones, then it comes off.

Thanks guys, for being happy for Koko. If is teeth are so crappy do I have to worry about him chewing on a dental stick? He doesnt chew much. He tends to try to just swallow things.


AND the new vet i some research and decided Marianne's suggestion of Frontline and Sentinel would be the best for Koko. Hurrah Marianne!!!

Thank you and ice cream for everyone!!!

Addy:
Yes you do, if he swallows things. Those dental chews are similar to greenies and they can cause intestinal blockage if they are larger ones like 1/2 inch in diameter. I do not give them to Tipper anymore after I saw some things on the news about them. If they are the flat ones from CET they dissolve and are ok. How is the brushing going? Is he ok with it? Blessings
Patti

I would call the vet and ask what she recommends for a dental chew and if his teeth are good enough to do that.

Love
Sharlene

So glad to hear such great news about Koko! :):):):p:):):)

Rosie ended allergic to Frontline - Intense itching! Oddly, it bothered Buddy too? I must attract little allergic dogs!

Addy, I'm so thrilled that you and Koko have each other. He sounds like such a mellow sweetheart. Xxxxxx
