for those who care: update on scooter

he's fine :) last friday he had to go into the vet to have some "oral" work done. they put him under anesthesia and pulled 2 puppy teeth that never fell out {by the way, i had no idea dogs even had puppy teeth, and especially didn't know they fell out!... i'm sure he ate all the ones that did. yum.} anyway... i guess the permanent teeth grew in and there was quite a bit of tartar and buildup with all the crowding. they pulled them and then cleaned and polished all the rest. WOW. what a big difference!

he acted like nothing even happened! he was just excited to see us and get away from the strangers @ the vet. we let him lick our faces as much as he wanted until it was time for him to eat. i'm pretty sure that was the happiest moment of his life. if you know me at all, you know how TERRIBLE his breath was before. all gone! they also microchipped him, which is pretty cool. it was so cheap, i would definitely recommend microchipping your pet if you haven't! although i can pretty much guarantee scooter is never getting away unless someone breaks into the house and steals him. all in all, definitely money well spent.
