Three dogs to the vet yesterday,all for dental treatment..I was a nervous wreck,as all three are quite old.Sparky almost 15,Squirt 10,and Tuppence,who knows!! We only know we have had her 10 years and she was far from young when we rescued her. All three had to have heart checks last week to see they were…
