Some people wait for neutering later, but many male dogs have started to mark at 8 months, and you want to neuter before marking begins. |
My Momo had shark teeth. He retained all his puppy teeth (6 on top, between the canines) thus the double row of teeth. I used to pull his lips up & look at it & freak out & hum the theme tune from 'Jaws'. The strange thing was that none of them were loose, I couldn't even pull them out w/a wash cloth. My vet used the term 'double row of teeth', not retained baby teeth, so I'm assuming that it's genetics & it should be bred out.
