Both pups have dental appointments tomorrow.
Maxwell is having his teeth cleaned and x-rayed at our regular vet. Hopefully the fracture is shallow, and they don't need to do anything further.
Sadie is going to a dental specialist, to see if her tooth can be saved. My research tells me that she has a slab fracture, which can be crowned if there isn't any (much?) exposed nerve. I can't see any nerve, but I also can't see inside the cracked portion. If they can save it, and the cost is reasonable, she'll be worked on tomorrow as well.
So we potentially have both dogs undergoing anesthesia and varying degrees of work. I'm unable to attend the vet appointments due to work commitments, so my boyfriend is taking them. He's under instructions to call me if he has ANY questions. Plus, it'll make me feel better to be involved at least a little bit.
I'm also worried about the pups. I know anesthesia is done all the time, but I also know there are risks any time you put a dog under. So cross your fingers for good diagnoses and successful procedures!
