My dog is getting his tooth pulled in a month and I'm wondering if anyone else's dogs have had teeth pulled, and what the recovery is like? Do I need to get anything special for him?
My Dane mutt had to have one extracted, not long ago. The aftercare isn't too difficult. You will be given pain medication for your dog & most likely will be told to fast your dog for the remainder of the day. We added a canned food to a very small amount of kibble, increasing the kibble amount each day for about 5 days, just to keep him comfortable. After a week, you should take your pup back in to see your vet to have the extraction site examined.
I would ask your vet rather than strangers on the internet...
Generally they will just have you hold food for a bit due to both anethesia and the pulled tooth. When you do feed, they may have you feed a little less than usual and add water to his food for the first few feedings to make the food soft and easier to chew. Nothing too major to my knowledge!
