This is something to consider when timing Spaying as the canines usually pop about 5 months, so checking canines is something that should be looked at then. Spaying can be done generally between 5 and 7 months too beat first heat depending on pups size/condition.
Thank you for the info. I spoke with Britster on here who's pup had the same problem. Jackson had to have surgery to shave down the tooth because it was poking into the top of his mouth. I made am appt with my vet tomorrow to have it looked at.
