My Frenchie puppy has a very loose and bleeding tooth, should I pull it out?

He definitely wants it out, he is chewing on everything.... it's his upper right canine.... not sure if its a puppy tooth or not, but i think it is....

Just give him a good chew toy or rope toy and his chewing will remove it. Hopefully it's a puppy tooth, you really don't want him losing permanent teeth if he doesn't have to, especially a canine tooth.
Reply:Hello. My puppy is teething too. I have found that giving her a frozen teething ring really helps with the irritation, and it also helps her chew with the loose tooth so it loosens more and falls out. I'd be careful about pulling out the loose ones yourself. It's already a miserable experience for her, and if that tooth's not ready to come out, then that can cause extra pain unnecessarily. My vet said to just try and make her comfortable. Hope that helps.
Reply:It is probably very uncomfortable for your dog, but, the best thing that you can do, is have it looked at by a vet. If your vet is closed today, or, it's late at night, I would recommend that you make an oppointment with your vet the next day. Try to get everything that your dog is trying to chew on, out of the way. Do not mess with it. It could be infected, and, your vet will know what to do! If you feed your dog in the morning, give him something soft, such as wet dog food. Thanks, and, good luck,
