A vet I brought my dog to wanted to anesthetize him to shave him down and flush his ears and apply some noxious medicine called Claro.

Uh uh, nope, not happening.

My dog got very overgrown and matted because no groomer would take him without proof of vaccines- despite the fact he’s 11 years old and has had health issues since he was OVERvaccinated 5+ years ago. No more. I looked and found a home groomer who never even asked about vaccines. No anesthesia needed!

As for ear flushing and Claro, no to that too. It’s antibiotics AND steroids. I want to help his ears without any of that nonsense. His appetite/poop, et are perfect. Not going to mess with that.

Did you have blood work done on your dog prior to the dental? If you did then I don't think the vet did anything wrong.However,if your vet skipped that step,then it's more likely the vets fault your dog is seizing.Blood screening is very important for even the most minor procedures.
