Otis and his Bad Mommy

Yesterday, I realized that my track record at being a good mom isn't so hot. I took Otis to the vet to have his teeth cleaned, and he came home with three missing! Turns out three of his teeth were infected at the roots as a result of my doggy dental neglect. He was put to sleep, had the bad teeth removed, stitched, and given a large doggy dose of morphine.



I felt so bad for the little guy when I got home that I bought him the fanciest soft dog food I could find, and then I got a little jealous because it looked and smelled so good! He gobbled it up, though, so he must be feeling a little better.
Maybe the tooth fairy should bring him a little gift??
Let's just hope I do a little better with Nugget's teeth!

  3. Lucky for you, Nugget won't have teeth for at least five months. By then you will have perfected your mothering skills.
