Does anyone know of a veterinarian in the Northeast that specializes in canine dentistry and canine oral diseases/illnesses? My dog presently has inflamed spots on his gums that are not going away, and several veterinarians have looked at him already and don't seem to know what it is. He is on prednisone, which is helping to bring the swelling down, and stop the itching, however, as soon as the prednisone wears off, the inflammation comes back and so does the itching. Right now, the only other suggestion from a vet is for him to have a biopsy. I guess I'll go with the biopsy if I can't come up with any other ideas. He's only 4, so he should come out of the anesthesia okay. /laura P.S. My dog is half afghan hound and half collie -- very cute.
