| New Yorkie Hello to all, I have a brand new 10 week old puppy. Her name is Abby, she weighs 1.8 oz. She had her vet check up yesterday and she's not only pretty but also healthy, except her teeth may have a bit of a over bite. Is this unusual or common? She already is fetching pretty good, walking on a leash alittle and best of all she potties most the time on her pee pee pads. Laurie |

| Congratulations on your new baby. Her adult teeth will probably be different then her puppy teeth that she has now. Enjoy her and welcome. Telea, Zoe' and Mia |

| Hello Abby Congratulations! I have a 11-1/2 week old male named Ben. He just went to the vet today and weighs in at 2.1 pound. He got a on everything too. I think your little Abby may be ahead of him on the pad training. We're batting about 50/50 there. Wish you continued success.

| Hello and welcome. Congrats on the new pup! An overbite is considered a fault. But it is nothing to worry about if you arent breeding or showing the pup

| If a puppy has an overbite or an underbite, how likely is it that this will go away when the adult teeth come in? |

| QUOTE["If a puppy has an overbite or an underbite, how likely is it that this will go away when the adult teeth come in?"]QUOTE That depends; take a look at this page: http://www.barkbytes.com/medical/med0021.htm IT gives info on puppy "-bites." Some will self-correct. The site says: "Some puppies that are born with an overbite might self-correct if the bite is no larger than the head of a wooden match. In most breeds of dog the bites are "set" by the time a puppy is ten months old. An overshot bite will rarely improve after the puppy reaches ten months. Some puppies with overshot bites will experience difficulties when their permanent teeth come in. Due to the increased size of the permanent teeth, as they come in they can damage the soft parts of the mouth. Overbites should be carefully watched, as sometimes extractions become necessary. "
