I have started a new post with the new date for Kathy's visit.

Kathy Hobson from Houndstooth is planning a trip to Charlotte for Dentals, May 16th, 17th & 18th.

is her website and has lots of info. Several people in the group used Kathy the last time she came through Charlotte and were quite pleased. I have Sugar scheduled for the May visit. If you want to schedule your dog (greyhound or non-greyhound) give Kathy a call.

Kathy requires a $50 deposit per dog. Without a deposit many people who book an appointment may not show up. Kathy flies in from CA, so she needs to be sure she has an adequate number of clients to cover her expenses. If you want to have your dogs teeth cleaned call Kathy to get your name on the list. She will take your info and ask you to mail her a deposit for the cleaning. If for some reason we don't get enough dogs scheduled she will refund your deposit.

Please share info about Kathy with all your doggie friends who might be interested in a non-anesthetic dental cleaning. Kathy will refund deposits for appointments if they are cancelled in advance but not for no-shows. Sounds fair to me.

To make an appointment for May 16th, 17th or 18th call Kathy at 310-835-1919. Her mailing address for the deposit is:
Houndstooth
1547 North Benning Blvd.
Wilmington, CA 90744

I've added my two older pups this time around - hopefully, we'll have enough this time.

Sugar is registered and Copper's Mom called and registered her too. Hopefully we will have enough this time.

Chip and Dingo are also signed up!! They really need it too...

and call 310-835-1919 for an appointment. Three of my greys did it last year with great results. It is a wonderful alternative to dental cleaning under anesthesia. My dogs were relaxed for the procedure and never made a sound. I was in the room and watched them. The procedure was stress-free and easy on the dogs. And it did a great job of cleaning their teeth.

Many vets recommend an antibiotic before a dental cleaning. Bacteria may be released into the body from nasty teeth and gingivitis. It is a good idea to use an antibiotic before any dental procedure. Talk to your vet about this. My vet is happy to give us antibiotics before we do non-anesthetic dental cleanings.

Best Wishes,

Maddie is getting hers done this year!!!

Karen, what was the regime for antibiotics your vet said for yours to take? I have antibiotics refill from Toby and was going to refill and use those for Sugar but don't remember qty and if it was before or after.

My vet uses Amoxicillin 500 mg. 2 capsules every 12 hours. Start 2 days before planned dental work and continue for a total of 10 days.

Where will she be doing the cleanings and what is the total cost?

She will be in Charlotte May 16th, 17th and 18th. The cost is $150.00. She requested a $50 deposit but at this date she may just setup the time for an appt and let you pay all at the appt time. Her number is 310-835-1919.

She is going to be at Pawtique which is just off 485 in Ballentyne.
