I wrote before about Dinky's broken tooth and have had some feedback on it from ya'll. The reason our vet suggested pulling it was because it has darkened in color. If it was just broken, there wouldn't be any concern right now. Because of the discoloration I need to be concerned with the tooth abcessing and causing her pain. As of yet, it doesn't seem to bother her. The little piggie is eating fine and had even gained a little weight since her last weigh-in. I will keep a close eye out on her and make sure she continues to eat ok. Because of the bald spot she had due to stress I didn't want to make her go thru a tooth-pulling just yet. I recently returned to office work after working at home for almost a year. Personally, I think she just missed me and it stressed her out. I've been paying ALOT of attention to her both in the mornings before work and all evening. Her hair is growing back just fine. There's nothing wrong with her (except for the tooth) that alot of hugs and kisses won't heal. Toni & Dinky (momma's girl) [Posted in FML issue 2292]
