So, today was Poppy's first real check up. She did pretty well, she shivered and was stressed out a little but soon got over it. She is completely healthy, the only thing we need to watch out for is her teeth. The doc says she has a big underbite, which is normal because its genetic, but because of it there are two teeth missing at the back. He says if they don't come in it will be fine, but if there are teeth under there it could hurt her mouth severely and they would have to be removed. He said its not urgent, but to just watch her and check her teeth regularly. I guess it kind of makes sense that she's missing teeth back there, she does take longer to chew, I thought it was just because of her underbite, but its also because she's missing two teeth! Other than that, she's a healthy, happy pup and they said she was the perfect weight, and had very healthy skin, coat and they were very happy to see we were using a good quality dog food and a harness! Yay for doing everything right! :)
Hooray for a healthy, happy, dog! :)
