My Vet told me they should lose thier baby teeth between 4 and 7 months. My Chloe started at 18weeks at least that's the first one I saw. At 7 1/2 months she had lost all her baby teeth but two. She had retained her top two and the adult teeth grew in front of them. I was going to have her spay between 9 to 11 months. When I took her to the Vet to have her teeth checked they suggest I have them removed as they were not loose and who have to be taken out. I didn't want to mess with her mouth and have rotten teeth or maybe having these baby teeth mess up her adult teeth . I decided to have have her spay early at 7 1/2 months and the two retained teeth removed. I didn't want to have her put under anesthesia twice. I went to the Vets on a Friday she had bloodwork done and had her surgery on tuesday and is doing great. I would suggest you call and talk with your Vet to find out what's going on they may want to do an x-ray to see.
