| That last darn baby tooth. I had Lacey Rose spayed 3 weeks ago, one week short of 8 months old. The vet pulled 3 baby teeth, but told me she still had one lower baby canine and no sign of the adult tooth. He said he didn't want to pull the baby canine just in case the adult one did not come in. Well it's in now and the baby tooth is holding on for dear life. She and I have played tug of war with a sock til my arm hurts and that tooth refuses to budge. I hate to put her under again so soon after her spay. Could it cause her a problem if I waited until November when she's a year old to have it removed?

| Yeah...you can wait. Just keep her teeth brushed regularly as food may get trapped there. I had Mandie's pulled at her 1 year mark.

| Thanks for the replies. Lacey loves the taste of the Nylabone toothpaste and morning brushing is now a ritual.

| Zoey will be 3 years old this Nov and I recently found out she still has her baby canines. It's hard to brush her teeth with her mouth being so small so I use the rinse often.. With her being only 5 lbs, I wanted to avoid having to put her under for as long as possible but this coming renewal at Banfield, I'll be having her dental done this time around... |
