| not sure what you mean, but if you mean that he has double teeth, baby teeth not pushed out by adult teeth, then that is normal. My baby is 6mos old and he has both upper & lower canines doubled. If they don't fall out on their own, we are having them removed when he gets fixed.

| Retained baby teeth are very common in toy breeds like Yorkies. They have to be removed if they don't fall out on their own. This is usually done during the spay or neuter while they are already under anesthesia. |
