Awww, poor little puppy.. You don't need to worry though. As the others have already told you, it's perfectly normal. You might be lucky enough to find another tooth or two. I have 3 of my dog's baby teeth in her scrapbook.





Puppies have no teeth at birth, and grow deciduous teeth beginning their second week of life. At three months of age, the deciduous teeth begin to be replaced by the permanent teeth.





The replacement process begins with the incisors, and moves backwards through the canines, premolars and finally the molars.





The turnover process is usually complete by the time the dog is eight months old, with none of the original 28 deciduous teeth remaining. Most deciduous teeth are swallowed with food and never seen by the pet owner. Occasionally a deciduous tooth is merely pushed to the side and retained next to the permanent tooth. Retained deciduous teeth can be removed by a veterinarian.





The incisors turn over from deciduous to permanent from two to four months of age. The canines usually convert around six months of age. The premolars and molars follow in that order, with the last permanent molar erupting around eight months of age.





Dogs have 28 deciduous (temporary) teeth and 42 permanent teeth.
Reply:Just like people, dogs lose their baby teeth too.
Reply:Like humans, dogs have "baby" or milk teeth and adult teeth. What you are seeing is perfectly normal at his age.
Reply:Yes that is normal puppys loose their teeth kinda like humans do.... that is why puppies have sharp tiny teeth and older dogs have bigger and slightly duller teeth :)♥
