I’m looking for a vets input and opinions on a picture of a dogs teeth. I’m adopting a rescue dog and I noticed that her teeth don’t look the best. Her left canine is cracked off and you can see some discoloured teeth. I know you have to examine things like this in person to really know the true condition and severity of the teeth but just judging by the picture how serious do you think it is? I can’t meet her in person so I’m not sure if it’s a risk I can take if she ends up needing major, and expensive, dental surgery. IMG_2072

Hello - I'm not clear how old this dog is, and whether those are deciduous (baby) teeth or adult ones, but I would have expected a genuine, trustworthy rescue who has had their charges properly assessed, to provide a vets notes or at least allow you to contact their vet for more information.  Another way to handle the situation would be to arrange to have the patient vet-checked yourself.
