| Yep they swallow them or you might find one on the floor sometime. It must not be too harmful because they all do it

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | Yes, they can swallow them. It won't hurt em. They should just poop em out. When my baby was loosing his we would play tug of war with stuff animals and his would become so loose and fall out then. It didn't seem to bother him at all. |

| baby teeth About a week ago, Gucci started chewing on something - couldn't find anything in his mouth, but about 3 hours later when I again checked on his non-stop chewing, out came one of his molars! 2 days later, same thing. This morning, I noticed he has another loose molar, so I'm expecting to find the 3rd one sometime tonight. I'm a little worried about the rest of his teeth, because it looks like they're coming in and the baby teeth haven't come out yet. I'd hate to have to have them extracted by the vet. |

| It is very common to have retained baby teeth. Vets often remove them during the neuter as they are already anesthetized. It isn't too big of a deal, actually. Hopefully they will fall out on their own though. |
