Maggie Went To the Vet Dentist

Maggie could not chew
So she did not eat it
This went on for weeks
So off to the vet dentist

The staff did some tests
Checked this and that
Every test was done
The appointment made

Maggie was there on time
She was there for 4 hours
Getting 16 teeth removed
All done at the same time

She whimpered a lot 
Then she complained
all day
Sometimes in the night
She could eat soft food

Maggie was not allowed 
To have her treats
Nor was she allowed to play
So she complained all day
She had to be quiet and rest

poor maggie. I never thought of a dog not being able to chew. Gosh, if they did not have a master to provide them wet food, whatever would they do??

DearDarlene, Ah I feel for Maggie. The agony must be awful. Imagine us having 16 teeth removed My daughters dog lost many teeth, After that, Sparky's tongue hung out as there were no teeth to hold it in. Sad.. Hug Maggie for me. Love, Patti
