We inherited a Yorkshire, she's about 12 years old, somewhat happy, sleeps a lot but still spry. The previous owners never took her to a vet for dental care and now her teeth are deteriorating. It cost too much to have them fixed or torn out. She cannot bite on anything except soft dog food. What can I do to help keep them somewhat healthier and thus keep our little Roxy happy in her senior years? Answers muchly appreciated.

There's nothing you can do to help her at this point except have those teeth pulled. Serious tooth and gum problems often leads to other major health issues, like kidney, liver or heart trouble - that's why dental care is so important.
