Good morning Dr Magnifico
Marley’s (Gainer) diarrhea started up again yesterday. Otherwise he remains himself and is eating well. I have Metronidazole on hand from the rescue. Would it be OK to give him some? If so, how much? How often? Thank you!

I have a 13 year old (best estimate because he was a rescue) Chi that needs a dental. He has CHF and takes 2.5mg of Enalapril daily, as well as 12.5mg of Lasix daily. Is it safe for him to have a dental?

Sarah Good morning- I would talk to your vet performing the cleaning or surgery (not sure what type of dental you are referring to). Your vet is familiar with your pet and the overall health and can assess any risks with you.

Krista Magnifico Hello,
Please see your vet and let them examine the tooth more closely. I expect they will recommend it be removed. A broken tooth can have pulp exposure which allows an open conduit between the mouth and the sinus cavity. This permits and promulgates infection and pain. I hope this helps.
My 3 yr old Pom has terrible breath, and has since I became his mommy 18 mos. ago. Will brushing his teeth, improve his breath, and remove the tarter on his teeth??? If so, what toothpaste do you recommend? Toothbrush or finger brush?
Hello!
I will have one of the clinic technicians call you to discuss. We do not post drug dosages online for concern other people will dose without a vets notification.
I am off today. Back on Tuesday. Have a great holiday weekend
Krista.
