Eileen - 249708 Port Perry, ON 1/9/2013 5:35:42 AM Good information to know. I am so glad my granddaughter is studing to be a Vet and she loves animals so I know I will have a Vet in my family I can totally trust.

jim Sneedville, TN 7/26/2011 5:17:16 PM Pale gums is a bad sign. Dog is in shock, or in puppies,very anemic from worms. Swelling,rattle snake bite, give benedril antihistamine and a shot of penicilian because snakes have a dirty mouth. Foaming at mouth and swelling in a warm area, dog tried to bite a cane toad, again first aid is washing out the mouth with a garden hose and give dramamine to keep air passages from closing. article doesnt give first aid. could havesaid it all in 2 words, ; call vet.

Esther Oldbridge, NJ 4/23/2009 2:20:36 PM By chance I happened to notice the gums below my dogs bottom teeth are black. I know they were always pink. The gums above her top teeth are pink. What is going on? Otherwise she seems fine.
Jan Somonauk, IL 2/6/2009 10:47:08 AM This is a good article but what about real red gums mostly in front of mouth. Had her teeth cleaned in Nov. 2008. Now she is eating dog stool when she goes outside. Has never done that. Would really like your comment. You have nothing on red gums.
