Gus went to the vet yesterday for a teeth cleaning and he has had an bump on his back for about 2 months now. He lost his last little tooth on the top in the front. It has been loose for a while now and I knew he was going to loose it. The bump on his back was an infected sebaceous gland. They cut out the infection and gave him 4 stitches.
One of the health problems of the yorkie breed is bad teeth. Over the last 7 years he has only had his teeth cleaned 3 times and each time he has lost at least one or more little teeth in the front. Yesterday he lost the last little tooth he had on the top. He now has a toothless grin on top.
