Yes, they do seem to come in fast! Mia's have been coming & going for the last few months. A few weeks ago we took Mia to the vet's office but her regular Dr was off so we saw a new guy, he tried to tell us that ALL of her baby teeth should have been out by now... I laughed and told him I had just found one a couple of days prior (and she was almost 7 months). We had her spayed last Thurs - they pulled the 4 tall ones (canine?) and 1 baby that was already coming out... but guess what I found yesterday? Yep, another tooth (molar).

I put off neutering my pup until he was a year old - so that his baby teeth would all come out.

He did lose some teeth as late as 10 months - but, in the end, when he was neutered, there were two that had to be pulled. The vet said that they were really in there tight and were actually hard to pull - (this is why they didn't come out on their own).

Good luck! - Not to worry!

Marilynn went through that too (double sets). Her's fell out no problem at all, the vet didn't seem too worried. One day she had them, the next they were gone.

Kiki had the same problem and they pulled Kiki's teeth when he was neutered also.

I have had 3 yorkies and all had to have their baby teeth taken.

My vet (he only deals with small animals) said of all the toy breeds he really only sees this in Yorkies.

Please don't wait too long because you might end up with having really crooked teeth which you do not want.
