can yorkies go with baby teeth and canines growing
in the same socket? I have never seen this before.
My daisy is 8 monthes and no sign that the baby teeth are loose!!

I dont know much about yorkies being that this is my first time owning one. (I LOVE HER!!!) but i too noticed that she had her fangs growing while she had her baby ones there. I say dont worry, eventually she will loose them. I got to actually get her first baby tooth and saved it. The other 3 fangs she lost herself, playing, biting her toys and all. No biggie. But everyone's case is different. Luckyly mine just fell of and no harm done.

Now other question, do they loose only their fangs or ALL teeh come loose and grow adult ones?

They lose all their baby teeth and grow permanent teeth.

ohh in that case. mine has lost only her fangs. I checked her mouth and she doesnt any other double growing tooth. At what age will this happen, or since fangs started already, they will all just go one or few at a time already?

Chachi had double teeth about 5 months. They will come in probably one at a time. If the baby teeth dont come out on their own they will have to be pulled. Chachi had 4 pulled.

Thanks for the info. As i said before, I was only able to get her 1st fang. The rest have no clue were they went. So dont even know if they are the adults ones or not. How to tell?

You say your puppy started to lose them at 5 months old? Or had doble teeth for about 5 months?

chachi · 08-22-2005, 09:24 AM

He started to lose them about 4 months old. He had double teeth about 5 months old. Your vet will be able to tell if they are baby teeth or adult. Chachi had the remainder of his baby teeth pulled when he was neutered.
