How to you cure ankyglossia?
Anklyglossia is a condition where the lingual frenum is too short. The frenum is a small cord-like tissue that attaches the front of the tongue to the floor of the mouth. To correct the condition, a dentist simply applies a small amount of local anesthetic to the area, cuts the frenum, and places a suture to prevent the two severed ends from growing back together. It is a very easy procedure, and the post-op recovery is very short.

How do you remove a suture from a dog's paw?
Your vet is the best source of advice on this procedure. Most vets will accept questions like this one by phone without charging you. Assuming the dog is very compliant, and the vet says the suture has been in long enough, it can safely be removed at home. Ideally, you'd have a pair of suture scissors which are specially designed to get under the suture without risk of puncturing the dog's skin. They have a special hook on the lower blade a bit like a bird's beak. If you don't have suture scissors, you'll have to be especially careful that your dog doesn't move during the procedure. Gently pull the suture away from the skin by one of the loose ends with a pair of tweezers. Snip the suture thread on one side, just below the knot (between the knot and the skin). Once the suture is cut on one side, it can be pulled out of the skin. Dried blood may cause the suture to stick slightly, but just pull gently and it should release. If it is harder to pull out than a pierced ear ring, consult a veterinarian.
