New Born Pup
My Guinea pig taco is 4 he’s a male and he’s been to 3 vets now the first vet we went to was because he chipped a tooth and was having issues eating we went to a vet 1 he had a bloat and Gut Stasis diagnosis vet wasn’t worried about the chip gave him simethicone and meloxicam a little later his teeth started wearing at a slant vet 1 had us come back to get his front teeth filed down the were filed shorter than ideal fast forward to his teeth grown in fully his teeth were wearing at an angle again we let it be for a bit to see if it would strengthen out hasn’t rlly we took him to vet 2 he have a antibiotic baytril and more meloxicam he’s had a toe that’s swollen and it hasn’t cleared up he’s been on it for a week and 3 or so days he’s prescribed for 14 days the vet said that if his teeth are still having issues we should pull the front ones not doing that at all after he said that we began looking for a new vet we went to vet 3 today and he has elongated teeth roots tmw he has an appointment to be put under anesthesia and his molars to be filed down today he was giving a shot for vitamin C just in case he’s low other than his teeth problems he seems to be a healthy happy piggy still interested in lovings and runs around jumps up into your arms etc his coat is shiny soft his eyes are clear and shiny but sometimes he’ll droop his eyes or sink them in causing his lower lid to sag and is that because his teeth are hurting him or ? I’ll give photos down below my biggest question is how long does this dental work last as this is not permanent and how at risk is he for dying under anesthesia this vet has performed this procedure many of times and will take her time he will be under for 20 minutes he weighs 1 pound 15.6 ounces I don’t want my pig to die but this is something that needs to be done I would love it if anyone could share their experience with their piggy going under and what to expect I believe he is in good hands
