If you have a show dog that you are watching carefully, you really start watching that mouth almost daily from the time they are about 4 1/2 to 5 months......sometimes just pulling the right teeth will give the mouth enough room for the adult teeth to come in just right......Again, a vet that knows the importance of a good bite, knows what is really happening to the growing mouth.
