Otherwise, he is very knowledgable and I feel really comfortable with him. What type of questions should I ask. Should I just wait and if so, how long to see if baby teeth fall? All advice will be greatly appreciated. Sorry if the pictures aren't clear enough. I put the darker picture to show how her gums are a little swollen with the baby and grown teeth in. Thanks, Kayla
We just had Sebastien's remaining baby teeth removed in August ,he was 9 monmths old and still had all 4 canines and one little tooth on the top front.My breeder recommended that we have them removed by 9 months and said that the canines do not normally come out on their own.If you wait much longer than this it could throw off their bite.
Even after the teeth were removed it took a few weeks before he was comfortable chewing his hard food.He is 11 months now and is great.
Hope this helps a little .
