that first price is down right robbery! I had a dog that had stage 4 periodontal disease that had to have 13 teeth pulled and it was less than $500. Note: my dog had diabetes and a heart murmur so her vet refused to put her under to do any dental work and that is why her teeth got so bad. We got a new vet who was a heart specialist and that vet had the confidence to put her under for dental work. Glad your dog and your wallet are in good shape.
