Loosing teeth? Well Gwen turned 19 weeks old yesterday, and today after she'd been playing for a bit I picked her up and looked at her teeth and she's lost three of them! The two in the very middle on the top and one under those on the bottom. I never really noticed what order my other dogs (all much bigger than she is) lost their teeth in but I thought they got new canines first.....Is she loosing them normally? She doesn't act like her mouth is hurting or anything and she is gnawing on her toys and stuff just like normal but I was just like "OMG! What happened to your mouth?" I have noticed there was more of a gap between her teeth like her adult teeth were maybe trying to think about coming out but yesterday she had all her teeth! (There does appear to be little white nubs in the upper holes but the bottom one looked like it had just fallen out when I looked). So I'm assuming she's ok since she's her normally bossy little self but I was just concerned about the pattern she was losing them in.....Thanks!
Also I've heard about them retaining their puppy teeth, I was wondering which ones they normally retain so I can keep an eye out. Thanks again.
