 Re: gum/tooth absess
It is a "whew" moment. The bump is not an infection but an epulus mass. During the exam we noticed a different tooth being grayish (so it is dead) as well as another with a broken end. He must of taken a nasty fall or ???
On the extemely bright side, he had zero worries about being in the vet clinic and immediately took to the vet who responded after the complete exam by saying "how could someone have done that (abandoned him) to this dog? He is amazing". Proud moment. We were also able to get some possible info from his tattoo as to a clinic that might know him in Langley, BC.
Anyway, we will take a digital photo of it and try to measure the bump with some calipers and keep an eye on it.
