I took my 4 yr old dog into her first teeth cleaning last week. The nice vet who examined her told us that she might have to have 1-2 teeth extracted, BUT they would call me before doing so. Instead, the next day, I received a call letting me know all NINE of her front teeth had been pulled. I can't believe the audacity of pulling all of her front teeth without getting my approval first. Whether or not the vet believed this was the best for my dog, I should have been given the option. And, if I had, I would have chosen something much less invasive for now. Imagine if this had happened to a human child. My poor pup, with no teeth at only 4 yrs old. And it's irreversible.
I HATE them for not giving me the option by calling me first.
