My Prince is 7wks old with horrible, horrible puppy breath. he doesnt have any teeth yet. Does anyone have recommendations?

Are you the breeder?

my1stPrince · 11-01-2009, 06:34 PM

no.....

livingdustmops · 11-01-2009, 06:36 PM

Someone let you take home a 7 week puppy? or was he even younger?

Sorry this is surprising to me..

Unless he is ill this is the smell puppies have especially if he doesn't have any teeth.

It's not just "puppy breath"?

What is he eating?

7 weeks is young to be homed. Especially for a small breed.

Your puppy should have teeth at 4 weeks of age...something doesn't make sense here...see website below..

Have you taken him to a vet for a vet checkup?

yeah hes barely eating...im having problems with that too. He has dry puppy chow. I mix it with warm milk til it gets soggy, he just drink the milk.

You need to grind up the puppy food and then mix it with goats milk..

When did you get this little thing?

Who was the breeder?

my1stPrince · 11-01-2009, 06:41 PM

wow. I didnt know any of this. Yeah i got him thursday, actually is bday is 9/20. Im taking him to the Vet tomorrow.

_Chrissy_ · 11-01-2009, 06:49 PM

I would take him into the vet ASAP (as you are).

Something is not "right". He should be eating and have milk baby teeth in already.

I have never heard of a breeder letting a little puppy go leave young.
I heard one it is about 12 weeks for Yorkies.

Keep us posted after the vet

Gosh I wish you had found YT before you bought this puppy. They are breeding 3 1/2 # little girls...they sell Xmas puppies...breed 4 different types of dogs and sell their Yorkies at 6 weeks and they are CKC..All big red flags.
Please let us know what the vet says about your little one not having teeth and the general health of your puppy.
