I'm happy to anaesthetise most, included cases like you refer to that appear as second opinions because of being high risk and to be honest, palliative care often includes whole mouth 'extraction' of loose teeth. Do draw the line at cases of severe heart failure symptomatic even with meds, especially for hepatoid adenomas where 2 implants will likely outlive life expectancy of patient, reverse problems in question and not put patient at risk. No brainer for obstipated ckcs with severe heart disease or geriatric bulldog. Early or midlife castration obviously preferable. previous bad reactions should not preclude future treatments more a review if previous regime and thorough planning - can be harder to get consent from owner when viable medical alternatives are available, and have been discussed as part of informed consent

[quote user="Michael Woodhouse"]I remember a ~15 year old Dachshund that moved to the area. The poor dog had awful teeth. Talked owner into GA and basically remove all teeth easily. The improvement in that dogs quality of life was amazing. He lived another 4 years. Previous vet had said as head a heart murmur was not an anaesthetic candidate.[/quote]

I had a similar story with a CKCS. removed pretty much all her teeth, like a different dog the next day. She's still going too.

Do these really exist? I appreciate that some patients are higher risk, but I've never yet seen an animal of any species we treat, that I am not prepared to anaesthetise, even those with previous bad reactions.

Had a dog in last week for a GA and stitch up. Dog had a large ?lipoma in front of sheath that was starting to interfere with urination - we removed under the same GA. Own practice (allegedly) said dog was not a GA candidate.

I just don't get it.

Have had similar response compared to castration, but wears off. I reserve only where i think patient not anaesthetic candidate or owners won't consent

Have used it once, the adenoma hasn't progressed but hasn't noticeably shrunk
