My Pomeranian if 6.5 months old and I am worried about his teeth?

He is 6.5 and is now in the stage of losing molars which I have found several of them hooked on his fur LOL, then the front teeth had started to comeout at 5 months. Now the incissors are kinda funny. One is in front the other is under at the back and does not look like it is coming out. I cant tell which is the adult and which is the baby as the top is pointed and not shaking. the one that is under the top is way way under and not exactly close like a replacement tooth. Same with the canine. I see the top canine is coming out at the top of the top one instead at the side. Am I to have the vet pull those as the new ones seems to be coming out in a pointed way. Has anyone had this happen and it actually pushed the baby canine out and then the tooth that looks pointed outwards started to grow inthe right direction?





Bottom canine is not showing signs of new growth. Dont know if I should let the vet pull them all? HELP

Best thing is to take him to the vet. Sometimes the puppy teeth just don't want to come out. When we had our border collie mix nuetered, the vet pulled out the canine teeth because the adult teeth were coming in and the puppy teeth didn't want to come out. Since he was already being put under for being fixed, we just had it done then. I would go and talk with your vet and see what your next step should be.
Reply:I have have the same problem with my Yorkie. She just turn 7 months. She is spayed already. I am planning to wait one more week. Is the puppy teeth still there. I'll have the vet to pull them out.
Reply:At 6-7 months they loose their tooth just like a kid!! Just keep an eye out for baby teeth that don't come completely out. Normally the baby teeth, if stuck, will lodge behind the adult. They are easily removed by your vet. I know some breeders that remove them themselves. You don't really have to do anything, it is perfectly normal. YOUR BABIES ARE GROWING UP, MAMA!!!
