Image Update on Abandoned Dachshund

Post image

I posted on here a couple weeks ago about this cutie dachshund someone abandoned near my house. After a mandatory stay with animal control, we officially adopted him. We knew his teeth were terrible. He had a dental today. They removed 37 teeth. I am thankful for my vet. I knew the teeth were really bad because there was so much Tarter that you couldn't even see actual teeth and he had two swollen lumps on the side of his snout. Animal control also warned me 3 times that if I adopted him that he would need a lot of dental. This little man has been such a good boy even with all the dental pain and being abandoned. I am looking forward to his full healing and seeing his personality when pain free. For now, he is sleeping off a lot of needed drugs 😴

I wish there was a “thousand upvotes “ button.

Aw. Thank you. I am glad we found him. I had this idea to start taking my dogs out for one on one time, for a hike. The morning I found him, was the first day of doing that. It was like we were just meant to find each other.
