YOu know I am not sure. lol I was playing with her last night and noticed she was missing a tooth (bottom row..right smack in the middle). Not sure how to tell the difference. ) But she is still chewing a lot!
One of the vets I went to told me that if I wanted to check to see if there were any baby teeth left, and I could tell, that I could stop into the vets office and pretty much anyone that worked there could check by just looking at them. I personally noticed that the baby teeth are smaller and very sharp. Adult teeth are bigger and not as sharp.
Lexi is about 6 1/2 months old. When she got spayed on July 30 I had the vet check to see if she had any baby teeth left and if so to pull them. The vet said that she did not have any baby teeth left.
Casper is almost 8 months old and about two weeks ago I fed him a bite of the sandwich I was eating and a baby tooth fell out. I think it was his last.
Tuffy is 7 months old and he's still losing baby teeth. I gave him some harder toys and that seems to be what is getting out those stubborn teeth. I think he'll probably have to have his top and lower canines removed because those are not budging.. not amount of tug of war seems to make those little teeth want to move an inch. I was really hoping we'd be able to avoid having to do that, but oh well.
I read on a couple websites that dogs lose their teeth between the ages of 5 months old and 8 months old. So my guess is that Kissyfur's dog should be towards the end of teething.
Today I brought home a rescue Maltese-cotón tulear mix.
She’ll stay with Belle and me till her forever family is fixed (the shelter is currently reviewing 2 families). Within a week or fortnight they should have a family.
She gets along very well with Belle, but she’s scared of me. When I give...
I hate it when Bailey isn't feeling well...which is not too often, luckily. But he is sick right now and I could really use some advice. Monday night, he started pacing back and forth and crying to go outside (not normal for him)...I took him out and he had a really loose stool. That day, he had...
I didn't want to hijack Baileysmommy Sad Story thread, but it did get me to wonder. This past weekend I had to get re-certified for CPR and first aid. During the class infants, and dogs were discussed in reference to CPR, how to breath for them, and choking.
I was wondering how many members out...
We need to stop this! The problem is that Snowball is 8 years old and is the sweetest dog you ever saw! EVERYONE loves him and that is the problem. Sometimes they will try to pet him and he is OK. At other times he is still nice and adorable but when a person gets too close he will bark and go...
Question about heartworm preventive medicine? Anyone on here not using heartguard or interceptor etc and just going with all natural products? I am trying to decide if I should give my 17 week old puppy heartguard or interceptor or just trying to go the all natural route. What are your thoughts?
