Maybe I should have posted this in the health section, but i'm curious to know when your babies' teeth started falling out/adult teeth growing in.......I've had theo since he was 11 weeks old and he should be getting fixed soon based on how many months he supposedly is (he's a little over 5 months according to the breeder/papers) but the vet doesn't want to do it until some of his adult teeth start growing in (so they can pull any spare loose ones when he is under to get fixed) and he has lost NO teeth. I'm wondering (well, the vet wondered first) if the breeder lied to me about his age in order to sell him for a higher price, of course the smaller they are, often the more expensive. I adore him no matter what but when you're dealing with health stuff it's not so cool to wonder if you know how many weeks old he actually is.........
