Meet Mabel 💕
This sweet 1-year-old boxer had been dealing with “lock jaw” on her right side since she was just a pup 😢 Her jaw would occasionally get stuck open until she managed to wiggle it back in place — but lately, it had been happening multiple times a day, and it really hurt! 💔
Mabel was diagnosed with a condition called TMJ disorder (dysplasia), where the jaw joint (like a hinge) doesn’t sit quite right. In her case, her right jaw joint was a bit too loose, causing it to shift and “lock” open 😬
We were able to perform surgery to fix the issue, and just 9 days later — she’s back to her happy, wiggly self with no more jaw locking! 🐶💪
We’re so proud of Mabel and thrilled she’s feeling better! 💖👩⚕️👑
Thank you Griffin Animal Hospital for your referral and help with this sweet girl and her wonderful parents 💜
