Wondering how much youse are paying for

dog teeth cleaning?

Up here in the GWN, the going rate seems to be in the $800 - $1,000 range for cleaning with no extractions (including pre-anesthesia blood work they recommend for older pooches).

Jack's a 22 pound terrier mix. A bigger dog needs a bigger bone but it needs to be small enough for the dog to get it back to his molars.

Went to the vet for an annual checkup and got the diagnosis of tarter build up. Scheduled a follow up in 3 months. Came back and teeth were clean. Vet wanted to know why I took the dog elsewhere for teeth cleaning!

No pork bones and of course no poultry as they are too soft and put sharp shards into the digestive tract!
