My mini schnauzer aged 12-14 (rescue so not sure) needs all his top teeth out which my vet is hoping to do ASAP but is trying to get a skin allergy under control with steroids. I spoke at length to him yesterday and need to ring Monday to hopefully book in. Apart from occasionally pawing his mouth this last week he's been ok but is very restless and pawing at and rolling on his mouth tonight. Would it be ok to give him quarter of a paracetamol as some pain relief tonight? I know my brother has done in the past with dogs of his but I never have and am worried I'll do more harm than good. If it's of any consequence his kidney function results have just come back as absolutely fine. I just want to ease his pain til we can get his teeth sorted. Any advice would be very welcome.
