Love Mating

They will definitely need to be removed, though. If not, it can lead to fast gum disease as the food can get stuck in between the rows. Make sure you brush your pup's teeth well until they are removed.

ETA: Just saw the post above mine. Why are you wanting to mate him? Curious.
We just thouht it would be nice to have him experience that once before being neutered. Would you suggest we don't do it?
