it's piggy again.
piggy has done a dental surgery about 2-3 months ago. (it's to grain his teeth down)
it was all g, until today when i was checking his teeth, i saw that there is a "slope" on his upper teeth. but it was fine for his lower front teeth.

:importantIs this a sign of dental illness?:important
i saw him eating pellets and drinking water. somehow he does not eat the skin of veggies/fruits.
i tried to feed him hay for a lot of times, but he just does not like it. he kind of refuses to eat it. i've brought him to the vet for once and it took me $500 bucks to grain his teeth once. i do not think that that will be the best way because this cycle will just keep on. bringing him to the vet --> home --> sick again --> vet again. i'm not trying to be mean. i love my pig. but i seriously need a way to make him eating hay himself, not visiting the vet all the time.:sad: in fact, doing surgery is very dangerous for a pig and i do not want him to experience this again and again.
guys. please tell me is this a sign of dental illness? how can i encourage himself to eat hay? his weight is about 600g (for the past few months till now). i'm just worried and don't know what to do. urgh.hmy:
