Emergency Hi Ya'll I hate to keep bothering you but I just realized that Zoe's teeth are already falling out at 4 months. Is this normal? I will call the vet tomorrow but please let me know if this is normal. I'm very worried. |
I'm not sure hopefuly someone else will respond. Cali is 8 months old and has retained ALL of her baby teeth. I think they do start losing them around 5 months old. |
Here is some info from aboutdogs.com...I think it's very normal! Beginning around three months of age, puppies start to lose their first set of teeth. The first ones noticed are usually the pointier canines, when an owner notices blood on chew toys. Many times an owner won't even realize his puppy has started to shed teeth. Adult teeth start to erupt within a few days of losing a tooth, and you'll notice your puppy has started a reign of terror, mouthing everything, chewing like there's no tomorrow.This is my favourite part of puppyhood ... not. An adult set has forty-two teeth: twenty-two on the lower jaw (mandible) and twenty on the upper jaw (maxilla). Twelve incisors, four canines, sixteen pre-molars, and four molars on the upper jaw, and six more on the lower jaw. |
