My puppies teeth are falling out!?

People say that they usually fall out around four months of age, but my puppy is about 7 months now! Is this a problem? Is she loosing her adult teeth? Should I take her to the vet right now?





p.s. i think it fell out while she was chewing her bone.

My puppies teeth are falling out!?
has she lost her baby teeth yet?
Reply:No it`s fine they lose their teeth at around 6mths old give or take a week or two.
Reply:well here is the thing maybe since it;s a puppy u shouldn't b feeding it bones u should quickly go to the vet because if its past 5 months there is something wrong take the advice
Reply:Puppies take a while to lose all their baby teeth, it isn't like the teeth go "oh no we are all 4 months, it's time to go" and they all fall out at once, lol, your poor puppy if that happened, you would have to feed her pureed meat, lol.


If you are very very concerned take your pup to the vet, but vets are expensive for a teething problem.


Good luck.
Reply:Puppies lose the last molar at about 8 months. This may vary, larger dogs mature later. If the tooth has no root (looks hollow underneath) then it's a baby tooth. If it has a root then you need to see a Vet.
Reply:well i never lost my teeth til i was nearly nine ( im a human of course). so yeh its normal for puppies to loose there teeth at a late age. also bones shouldnt be given to a puppy yet, so go easy on them. if he loses his "big" teeth then you should be worried. soon like a baby your puppy will be teething , so have a have wet cloth ready in the freezer or buy a freeze bone they have for puppies for this purpose. so when she starts to whine, drool more and starts chewing on things, give her the freeze clothes or the freeze bone to chew on, that will help her ease the pain and its fun for her to chew on as well.


hope this helps

Reply:they should be fine. make sure they are baby teeth. you can tell by looking. baby teeth are sharp and tiny. adult teeth are thick and much much bigger.
