Why would my 8 week old puppy still not have any teeth?

Some puppies develop later than others. Do you feel any places in mouth where teeth may be trying to come in? Things to gnaw on that are soft, but firm can help, rubber toys. Talk to the person responsible for the litter, and see if other puppies have the same problem. I got a puppy once that the people said was 8 weeks old, and the vet said, more like three weeks. No teeth, worms, fleas, and diarrhea. I just massaged his gums till teeth came in.

The constant beating with a shovel may have something to do with it.
Reply:Not sure, call a vet.
Reply:Puppies have 28 temporary teeth (called puppy teeth or milk teeth) that start coming in at about 4 weeks of age. They generally fall out between 14 and 30 weeks of age and are replaced by 42 adult teeth. If you have a puppy in this age range, there are some considerations to keep in mind. So if he doesnt have any yet I would see a vet.
