Great Pyrenees Discussions / Need advice for my poor foster's teeth!
« on: July 01, 2008, 01:33:27 pm »
Hi there,

We were successful with our first foster girl, Morgan - she was adopted by a wonderful family this past weekend.  We promptly accepted our new foster girl Macy, but this poor baby has the worst teeth... She's a very petite Pyr and she's obviously used her teeth to get out of a cage, crate, whatever in the past.  Her bottom teeth are worn down to the gums and her lower canines are badly worn in grooves on both sides and decayed.  It doesn't seem to bother her, but her breath is just noxious  :( .  I have brushes for all the other dogs and picked up one that attaches to my finger for brushing Macy's - it just looks gentler but I'm afraid I'll hurt her if I even try. 

I don't know what advice I'm looking for, I guess I'm just wondering if anybody's experienced this sort of thing before and if so, what have you done for it?  Breezely came to us from Rescue with gorgeous teeth....

TIA,
Kelli

Great Pyrenees Discussions / Duh, I guess I should introduce us...

Hi there,

I've been reading this board since I rescued my Pyr in December, but hadn't posted until today.  I have 3 kids (4 if you count my husband) ages 5, 7 and 8, plus Breezely (our Rescued almost-2-yo Pyr) our foster girl Morgan (Pyr who is about 2), Cassidy (our beautiful 13.5 yo Border Collie that we've had since she was 6 wks old) and Gomez (the Wonder Chihuahua, who is 1 and rules the roost).  I'm sooooo in love with my dog, but the big dog captured my heart completely in an instant.  Our rescue here in Florida is so over capacity, so we began fostering another about a month ago.  They are the most wonderful, amazing dogs I've ever encountered and consider myself sooo lucky to have them.  I am doing my best to find Morgan her forever home, but am in no hurry for her to leave us.

Anyway, that's us.  We are a very busy household  :D.  I've learned a lot just reading.  Thanks!

Kelli
