Just Terrific

CJ saw the vet today. The vet says her broken tooth has exposed pulp and signs of infection, so he's sending her to the doggie dentist. Exam, x-rays, bloodwork, consultation, anaesthesia, pain meds and if I'm lucky, just a tooth extraction. The dentist wants to do a root canal just because it's the canine tooth, but I don't think there's enough tooth left to bother. But in any event, I'm looking at hundred of dollars, the same month as car insurance and Christmas shopping. Great.
