As I just pm'd Amy...I have sent some emails around the world to different specialists....asking if anyone has heard of anything like this...IF ANY OF YOU KNOW ANYONE IN THE VET OR PEOPLE DENTAL AREA....would you mind asking if they had heard of this before? Someone has got to know/hear of this...he cannot be the first doggie with no teeth showing......thanks..
Johanna
hugs to you and Binx Johanna!
What a big day for the little/big guy!!!
What a cutie! :)
I hope they can do something to help poor lil Binx! What a precious fella he is! I am so glad that he is with you now. He deserves a loving and caring home.
Binx is in my thoughts. Give the big teddy bear a hug for me!

Long az da Krick dont rise...

to pack inna treet bag that day.
We suggested stoppin atta Wendy's onna way -
sum plane burger patties otta hit hiz spot jest rite! :D
PSSSTTTT.....Tex here....MEOWmie is at work, and I gots 'puter here. Binx will be going to the dawgie thang uppa north uf us, count on it. Us six tuxies need a BIG break. We lub him, but hes soooo BIG! AND, MEOWmie is spendin' wots and wots of love time wif him...kinda makes us mad. She gives him all this spezial foods, puts extra good stuff in it like hotdog and cottage cheese. Sheesh...he isn't a baby.
OOOOhhhhgotta run, here comes that big fella again. See you guys on the cat side.
Tex and the other five, in absentia
Aww, I'm glad he's done with the white coats for now. He sure is a lucky pup to be living with and loved by you. :) I'm happy he has you.
hee hee, Tex...I bet you are excited for May 25th to come around.... ;)
I'm glad that Binx is doing o.k. and his back home with his
family.:) You know I am so curious as to how a puppy could
have this dental condition.I've searched & searched for more
info on Binx's toofs & only thing I found was cases of older dogs
in the Boxer breed. As long as he's not in pain right now & eats
and plays o.k., he should be fine while you wait. He's got a
great mom.:D Good luck Thursday for help to be found.
No question about it, this is pretty rare. Lizbud, you are right, this seems common in boxers. Phred sent me a wonderfully informative email with links, descritive terms, contacts, etc., that really helped me understand things. Dad has boxers, but, he wasn't familar with this condition. It does happen as doggies age, but, that is more excessive gum growth, rather than bone formation.
I had done some research, though it was not anywhere near as productive as Phreds....and had emailed some vets around the world, pleaing for information. I have heard from two of them. One has a patient coming in next week with what sounds like similar information. He asked that my vet send the films and biopsy results to him, which I will do. If I can help anyone, I will.
The other vet had nothing but the highest accolades for my vet- Dr Auvil. Dr. Auvil is one of the founding fathers of Vet Dentistry, and 'knows his stuff'. Dr. Auvil is consulting with another specialist next week..and Binx has an appointment. Apparently, this vet sees patients all over the world, and together, the two of them will develop a treatment plan for Binxy.
What a "coincidence" that first, I find Binx, next, dad knows of this specialist that JUST spoke at their doggie club, that this specialist who only sees patients two mornings a week, has time to see Binx, and then, that the following week, he is consulting with another top tooth vet, and Binx gets an appointment. Coincidence, right?
;) ;)
Cat(&Binx)aholic,
Seems like a chain of "coincidences". Very happy ones. That's
got to be a Good sign. :) Hugs from Liz & Moki.

Binx is exactly where he should be.........getting only the best!
And his condition may help other pups around the world through you!
What a cutie he is - give him a hug from me this morning!
Someone up there is looking out for Binxy boy!
There are no coincidences, just Godincences! And right now God is looking out after Mr. Binx.Quote:

You got that right....and just think, the first thing He did was to find Binx a good Mommy.Quote:

I'm glad he's going to see such a great specialist in this field.
I've marked his next apt on my calendar & will be praying that everything goes good!
Until then give his some kisses and good snugglin' from all of us here.
The girls say they can't wait to see you Mr. Binx (specially Huney;) )
Uhhhh-Ohhhhh... :rolleyes:Quote:

Poor Mr SPOT is gunna throw a :mad: Hissy-Fit! :eek:

Oh Mr. Binx!!! You are one handsome dog!!! Sorry to hear about your toothy problems. Killian especially sends his sympathy (he's lost eight or so of his).
You are so lucky to have been saved by your Mom. How things are just falling into place is amazing!! Sounds like little miracles to me.
Good luck!!!
he's adorable! congratulations!:) :)
Oh, Cataholic, what a surprise, you have a doggy! A very cute one! I love him, his paws are so big and his face is so sweet. And I love his name too.
Can't imagine how you found time for me an Juni while so busy?
Kiss the slurpy face for me. I wish I were in Ohio now to pet his big head. I hope his problems will be over soon and you'll enjoy your time together.
:D Very funny Phred!!!:DQuote:

Miz Johanna talked to her Dad an iz gonna try sum new ideas fur mealz - sum Yogert fur breakfast an sum Cooked Cow Burger. But Mom keeps thinkin she duzint wanna turn him into a Fussee Eatur (or no fussier than he already IZ!)
Aftur da Pet Shop, dey visited at Mz Johanna's Sistur's Ranch wiffa BIG yard ta romp in an Two Dawggie COUSINz... Here'z a photo...

Havint heard nuffin frum tuday -
so we dunno if Mr Binx found da Eastur Bunnie in hiz yard or not. Hope da Bunnie left sum *treetz* that Mr Binx will like! :D
Well, Binx and I survived our first holiday together. I cleaned, cooked, and companized all day. Binx, well, Binx slept. He met my nephew, Cole, and was a very good boy with the two year old. He largely ignored us while we were eating, reading the paper, mom napping...though she said his snoring was a little 'loud' :D
The Easter Bunny brought him a chew bone, and lots of cans of puppy food. I am happy to report today was a very good eating day for Binx. The yoguart did the trick this am. I think it helps if I break his meals down into two courses. First, plain doggie chow. Then, after he gets his fill, we pick it up, and wait maybe 20 minutes. Then, I spice it up with something tasty...salmon, ground beef, hot dog pieces, etc. He then 'almost' finishes.
Thursday is our BIG day, and I am nervous. I will find out the results of everything..lab, heart, biopsy, films, plus, what we do from here. Prayers, please!!!
Happy Easter from Mr. Binx, the tuxies, and Johanna :)
CUTE!!!;)
Sounds like you had quite the Eater Binx!! New food, trip tot he store and getting to meet the cousins!! How fun!!!
Good luck thrusday Johanna. We'll be thinking about you!
Sounds as if everyone had a great easter at your house, so great to hear!
I'm glad Binx is eating well and can't wait to hear what the dr has to say.
Keeping you both in my thoughts for Thursday!
just now discovered this thread... that will teach me not to check in at least once a day:rolleyes: Thursday is circled for Binx and May 25 circled for the BarkPark... I'll be at the PA Meet this weekend and upon return will get myself "attached" to that thread. Johanna, I asked my vet (doctor to the stars) about your specialist guy and he says that indeed, he is world famous. Just a "chin up" & a "hang in there" from the EastCoast.
Laurie
I feel mean for missing this thread!
Congrats Johanna! Glad that Binx had a fun first holiday with you. He is so handesome! :)
Prayers coming your way from Fort Wayne!! Good luck and let us know.
Good Luck for tommorow, Johanna and Mr Binx.
Sending big prayers and positive thoughts your way.

/s/ the PrayerPups
Cinder & Smokey, you two are the very bestist and most adorable pray-ers ever!
Binx I hope everything goes OK at the toofey doctor. Good luck, sweet heart.
Good luck, Johanna. Please let us know as soon as possible.
Fingers & paws crossed that all goes well tomorrow for you Binxy boy!!
:Dsee, you need to have some toofers like my little smiley guy:D
Binx, what a boy like you needs is a good set of CHOMPERS!
I will be adding to the prayers that all goes well and they can find a way be sure you have some!!
Hugs to you both!
Good luck tomorrow!!!! We'll be thinking about you!!!
Good luck Johanna and Binx. We'll keep our fingers and paws crossed.
Well today's the day.... all paws crossed from this neck of the woods and if good wishes help at all things will certainly work out. When is Binx's appt? Oh please do let us know, whatever the outcome. My little Collar[flower] girl (part Aussie) only has a few toofies in her dear little mouth and she gets along just fine and has no soreness or anything so even if Binx doesn't end up with a full set of choppers he still has every chance for a bright and happy future.... especially now that he has you and all of our love to help him along.
