Actually, they can do implants for dogs just like they do for people.

Elderly dogs with missing teeth can cope because their skull bones have fully matured.

At this young age, the dog -needs- his teeth because otherwise, his jaws and muzzle will deform from their natural shape.

I’m sure he already has drool problems without properly meshing teeth.

This is just a crying shame and a sin.

We went downtown [I never go there alone...”demographics”] and a young man was briskly walking his pit.

We admired her and he brought her back so we could pet her.

She was the most unusual color pit I’ve ever seen.

Golden with a deeper golden brindle pattern that made her look like Damascus steel, only in a shiny bronze color.

Not a scrape, scratch or scar on her.

Quite a beautiful dog and so well mannered.

*Her* teeth were perfectly white pearls that gleamed in her healthy pink gums.

I was glad for her obvious good care and love and even sadder for this poor dog.

As usual, when I read about a dog’s misfortune, I emotionally compensate by getting mine toys.

Let’s just say that after a stop at PetSmart, Odin had a *very* bountiful birthday....:)

Do you bring Odin into PetSmart? Dogs aren’t welcome at very many places, but PetSmart is a great place to take them.

I never knew that!! That is amazing and you are right... without it, the jaw does deform (I have seen that up close).
