Please forgive me if this an obvious thing but this is my first experience having a dental bun and only the second dental he's had so I'm not familiar with it all yet..
Pixel had his second dental (spurs) today (7 months after his first.. Not sure that's a great sign for the future as he's only just over two and a half). The vet did say that though they were bad they didn't have to be done yet (I'd asked her to check about 10 days ago when he went in for his RHD2 vaccination as I suspected something wasn't right and unfortunately the suspicion was confirmed.. We left it for a bit but when he became picky with food at the weekend booked him in) but that they could well need doing over the holidays so we decided to get it done.
He's been home a little over 3hrs now (not eaten yet though did pick at the hay - he ate a very small amount earlier prior to being discharged but not much), though I'm not too concerned just yet as it's still early. He's left a couple of droppings but he's pretty sleepy.
What I am slightly worried about is that he's very wet. His chin was damp when we brought him home but now it's all of his chest as well. Is this normal just after a dental? He wasn't dribbling at all prior to the dental and though I imagine a little might possibly be normal he seems quite wet.
This didn't happen after his first (spurs were worse the first time) but I don't know if it's considered normal or if I should be worried and phoning the vet back?
Thanks
