Buster retained his baby canine teeth and I had to have them removed as they will crowd the adult teeth and push the bite out of alignment. I would check with your vet to see if they need to be removed. I am not exactly sure of the age when the teeth should have fallen out naturally before you have to have them removed. There are other people on here who are far more knowledgeable so hopefully they will let you know that. Buster was 9 months old when his were removed. Buster gets excited and barks when I am leaving and when he hears an unknown sound (quite the guard dog). My trainer said to try and get his mind on something else to stop the barking. Work on training with treats. This will get his attentions off barking and onto learning (and the treat reward) So you have a quieter and better trained dog in the end. |
