It's really common for small breeds like this to retain their baby teeth - Oscar looked like a shark (two rows of teeth) so at 7mths when i took him in to get neutered, they pulled 14 teeth... poor little guy. But it was better to do it that way (have him aneasthetized once rather than twice) than to wait and HOPE that they would fall out on their own - which they would not have. The roots of some of these teeth were an inch long and never would have come out on their own.
