| I'm not sure what to do, but it sure sounds like you might need to take her to your vet. Just in case she might have some type of infection or something worse. Maybe some of the other YT will have some better advise. Hang in there.........

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | That doesn't sound good at all....and please don't take this wrong - but Please do NOT use Hartz Products - they're known to be toxic and have killed many dogs and Cats.....Search the web and read about Hartz....I wish they were permanently banned from being sold in stores - too many people really don't know how dangerous this stuff can be I hope your vet can tell you why this is happening because they shouldn't be losing teeth at that age and GOOD LUCK !!!! |

| I so agree with V - Hartz products are something everyone should stay away from for other reasons than teeth. I have had rescue's come in at 2 years of age have to have teeth pulled because they were rotten. Teeth care is very important in little dogs as rotten teeth can slowly poison their systems. Have you been brushing her teeth? Have you had your vet look at her teeth? I don't know if breeding has anything to do with teeth or not but I suspect it does.

| I don't know that they make their teeth fall out, but Hartz products are in NO WAY effective. At 6 years old, her teeth should be perfectly fine unless you've neglected then her whole life which I highly doubt you have. You seem like a good momma! I'd take her to your vet and have her checked out. Dogs can get gum disease and other things like that just like we can with our teeth and mouth. Keep us updated on how she is!
