We got good news on Thursday. We went to the vet's office and had checkups and booster shots. Yukon's heart murmur is gone! He has outgrown it.
Too bad he won't outgrow the overbite.
He will most likely need to have his bottom canine teeth removed when the adult teeth come in. He may need to have the incisors removed as well. He will also need his teeth brushed for his whole lifetime, because the teeth don't line up right.

Yukon Has found his forever home with people who will love him lots in spite of his teeth.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteEmmett is doing great. We brought him to the vet today and the vet says we need to wait until his adult teeth come in to see what we will need to do. He might get a metal plate to widen his low teeth so they won't go into the roof of his mouth. He loves play a lot with my other dogs. We love him so much. He is such a love bug and we love that he has a long nose. We call him our little any eater. I will keep you updated and send pictures to you soon. Take Care. Love Emmett
