My vet suggested putting my chinchilla to sleep due to his dental issues but it breaks my heart to think about letting him go. Is there any other way to help him?

Without a physical exam, it is difficult to say if there are other options. Discuss your concerns with your veterinarian. Consider a second opinion with a vet experienced in treating chinchillas. A soft diet may an option once the dental disease is addressed.
