Amber lost another fang
Amber lost a fang about ten years ago. Today she lost the other one. I
will call the vet tomorrow but she is too old for a dental (17 1/2). She eats mostly wet food and when she gets dry treats, she probably swallows them whole anyway. ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44� 15' N - Elevation 1580') |

They use them for tearing meat from prey and there's not much of that to do with wet food! I think she's pretty amazing for 17-and-a-half. Sherry |

I called the vet. The tech said that if she was eating and there was no
swelling that she would probably be OK. She does hate to travel!!! ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44� 15' N - Elevation 1580') |

Also, I think there are probably some soft treats she could chew using her molars. Or you could soak the crunchy treats (briefly) in a little water to soften them up. Jill |
