You asked..."mouth rot isnt contagious is it?"...not through the air but it could be if the bacteria is introduced to the other one through contact (like a bite, for instance).



You said..."idk if a biopsy of mouth tissue would be nessasary... it sure as heck will be expencive to have that done. simple baytril and daily/as needed cleaning will take care of any mild case"...I didn't say "biopsy"...I said culture and sensitivity test. Without the test you won't know if the baytril is capable of killing the bacteria involved. If there is a pocket of infection there, then it will need to be cleaned out or it will only recur in my experience.
