| Nit Picky So, Gizmo is 5 months yesterday. And, it's like he all of a sudden has lost any interest in his food. He loves his bulley sticks, and chews, but when it comes to his kibble...Totally not interested. I tried getting a new kibble, wet food, Parmesan cheese, shredded cheese, little but of water on his food. He'll take a few nibbles and just turn his nose up at it. I have a feeling that he's teething and is a tad out of snorts, however I'm hoping this is not a permanent thing. I watch him gum at the kibble and it almost looks like it's hurting his gums, so I'm wondering if he's teething and it's making him out of sorts to begin with (hence the constant bulley stick and chewy chewing). I've had terriers and my Cairn's teethed and were out of sorts, but I'm simply more worried for him because of the whole hypoglycemia. I'm always checking his gums to make sure they're pink and moist. Also, he still eats his treats, one is soft the other is a milk bone. He gets those sparingly, however even the milk bone like treat looks like it hurts. Does it get better?

| Zhoie was like that too. I discovered she had so many double teeth is was pathetic, no wonder it hurts so to chew. Have you looked inside his lower teeth to see if his permanent are coming in behind the baby teeth? Zhoie had 13 teeny tiny teeth removed with her spay. When we had her teeth cleaned a 2 yrs, vet found 2 more.
