Teeth

what up evreyone my 16 weeks old male was playing with his rope last night and spit out a chip of f his rear tooth like the cap of the tooth just popped off he seems good and has no problems eating or chewing on bones ect. ??? and remarks would be great.

 

I really wouldn't worry about it too much. Usually around that age they are loosing the baby teeth and replacing them with the permanent teeth. If you don't see anything growing back consult your veterinarian.

 

I didn't know they actually replaced their puppy teeth. Just thought they just got bigger as the dog matured.

 

Didn't you loose your baby teeth?

 

Well my pup has his adult teeth now...he lives inside....and I havent seen any teeth laying around

 

No usually you don't see them laying around. Hell maybe they even swallow most of them LoL but never the less they do replace them with adult teeth.

 

thanks for the truth guys.

 

its wierd because I just noticed he had lost his lil daggers, I was thinking one day "wonder when hes going to get his big teeth" then i opened his mouth and bam there they was lol

 

While on the subject of teeth, my 7 mo. puppy has gotten all her adult teeth in, but one of her puppy cutters still hasn't come out. The adult one's come in right ahead of it, has anyone else experienced this? Will the puppy tooth get forced out?

 

i had a female pup that happened to and one day i looked and the baby tooth was gone. i just figured it was late coming out and the adult tooth helped push it out.

 

It should..but just keep an eye on it and if it doesnt, your vet will have to pull it or decay could happen.
