Baby teeth never fell out when adult grew in My little Mylie is about 10 months now and she still has her baby teeth along with her adult teeth I believe. They are layered looking and jagged kinda. I read you are supposed to have them pulled when we have her spayed. Well, she is 2 pounds if even that much. I am terrified to have her put under to be spayed and now I'm learing she will have to be under even longer to have teeth pulled...anyone have any expericence or advice on this matter? Also, if I do decide to do this...Will it hurt her later like it does for us? They give us pain pills...What about a tiny puppy?? |
When Gizmo was neutered, he also had to have some teeth removed. It's pretty common actually. And yes, they did send him home with a couple of pain pills. I had to ask for them and go back to get them though. So ask before you leave the office. |
Both my pups kept their baby canines with the adult grew in. I got big rope toys, the kind with the "floss" ends, and played tuggy with them, pulling the floss through their teeth. The baby teeth came out without needing surgical intervention. Perhaps that would work with your pup, too? Other chew toys may help, too. |
Have you really thought this through? I've read so many stories of older tinies, who accidentally got pregnant by a visiting relative. The male pup were supposedly toi young to breed, but they caught them in the act. For the next 6 years or so (I don't know how many), you will have male dogs going nuts around her. Almost any male dog that impregnated could cost her life. Please reconsidered neutering, you just can't predict the future, and how about times where you need someone to watch her? Spaying can safely be done, just make sure the proper anesthesia is used, and a blood work is done first. The blood work is good to do on tineis anyway, to ensure the y don't have undiagnosed liver shunt. The teeth really need to be pulled, rope toys might get some, but the majority of yorkies need help with a few of their teeth. Double rows of teeth are more than a cosmetic/bad breath problem, they can cause early tooth loss due to infection because of food build-up between the crevices. |
