Today Hank went to a new vet for a check up and estimate on eye enucleation. Well, when I told him Hank was about.. Uhh(can't remember exactly how old he is) 15 or 16 weeks old, the vet said, "Naww, really? He still has all his puppy teeth..and from the looks of his teeth, he's about 11 or 12 weeks."
So he told us that since Hank is already having health issues(just his eyes), there may be other problems with his development. He said there could be something wrong with his liver and so we paid to have blood work done.
15 minutes later and the bloodwork was done...
There were no abnormal marks on the blood work that could indicate there being anything wrong with his liver, just an abnormal blood platelet count because of the vetprofen for pain. He said that some of Hank's other medications could be causing his growth development to not be on track, but none of his medications should be stopping him from getting his adult teeth if he's 15 weeks old.
Question: Hank should have lost his teeth at 12 weeks, right? what else could be causing him from getting his adult teeth? :/ Could he possibly just be a late bloomer?
I'm so worried about Hank! I know he's happy with me, I just want him to grow up being healthy, too..
