Wen took Molly to the vet early this morning for a dental procedure. Molly has been experiencing some pain when her teeth are brushed daily, so today was the day to see what was going on.
Molly was anesthetized and the vet found a piece of mulch that was stuck up in her gum and it had abscessed and two teeth needed to be pulled, so that explained Molly’s pain. She recovered quickly and she’s back home now, so our little Scottie family has been reunited and all is good.
From now on, Wen is going to watch us like a hawk when we Scotties are out in the yard, because there are lots of areas with that tempting mulch for us to chew on. If a little piece of mulch could cause a problem once, it could happen again, especially since we seem to be obsessed with chewing it. I have a sneaky feeling that Wen is going to turn into the mulch warden to try to prevent us from having any future dental issues. Yep, the warden’s going to be on patrol!
Molly’s back home!
