Kevlin's posting is a summary of what we discussed today. Dr Kergosien wanted to see if his teeth would align properly after surgery. He did not want to pull teeth before the surgery unnecessairly. There are two upper teeth that are rubbing on his two bottom teeth and the two teeth are worn so this was not something that happened in the past 2 week period. It will likely make it easier for him to eat and close his mouth. One of the bottom teeth are jagged.
It will be a brief procedure and Kevlin decided to have him neutered for prostate health reasons while he is under anesthesia at the same time. It will all be a brief procedure.
We will know the precise food he needs tomorrow after our Internal Medicine specialist, Dr. Kenny Arceneaux, another owner of our practice, sees him again and determines the course of heartworm treatment. He may be ready for discharge by this Thursday but will know for sure once Dr. Arceneaux sees him.
No calls today however we did receive three checks in the mail. Total collected is around $4100 and the cost for services as of this pm is close to this by only a few hundred less. Heartworm medication was not listed on his invoice at the time of the financial update.
Will keep everyone posted tomorrow. He is still wagging his tail. It is a weapon!!! He knocks things over with that tail!!!!!!!
He jumped up on our treatment supervisor, Matt Proctor this afternoon. He is also in our treatment room 2, which is less critical than treatment room 1 where he has been staying.
