Meet Storm a 5 year old Dutch Shepherd with his new smile! If you can see in the picture Storm just had 3 metal crowns applied to his canine teeth. He had one tooth that was fractured and endodontics was performed. Because of the excessive wear on the remaining canine teeth, the owner wanted protective crowns placed on them (this picture shows the bottom 2 crowns).
So far this year Dr. Duke has performed 6 root canals and placed 6 crowns on dogs to protect their teeth. Police dogs are a big part of our work with endodontics and crowns because of their jobs in apprehension and bite work.

It's been 50 years since I graduated from Auburn with my Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine. It has been a great ride. I am still working full-time plus. I would not trade it for any job. Get up every morning and be ready for what ever is on the schedule. Yesterday was a sugar glider with a dental abscess.

We recently had a dog presented for recurrent vomiting. The first x-ray shows something suspicious in the small intestine, but no signs of stasis or blockage.
A barium series was done and the barium passed the suspected area with good motility, but still no definite diagnosis. Surgery was scheduled.
The the children's toy a "Pop-it" was removed. It was flexible enough to let things pass pass without causing a complete blockage.
Something a child had been playing with and probably food stained was too good a treat for the pup to pass up. Recovery was complete.

And the winner, the Hedgehog.

In second place, the Jack 'o Lantern that needed braces. Enlarge to appreciate the undulating light flickering inside.

Third place, the Cat with Hairballs. We hope you can appreciate the hairball laxative and anti-nausea medication accompanying poor cat. Again, enlarge for best effect.

The results are in. The hedgehog was a runaway favorite with 67% of the vote. The Braces got 19 % and the Cat hairball got 12% of the vote.
To show off the full imagination that went in to the works, we will probably have to use video in the future. The video below and 3 more postings will show off the great work of our tribe.

Honorable Mention. Below is a submission from a family member of one of our employees. She got so excited about it that she created a bat cave. Note the carving like a bat hanging down and as you get closer, the pumpkin takes on the look of a cave with bats inside! Enlarge for best viewing.
