Do dogs shed their milk teeth just as we humans do?

What happens when dogs' sharp teeth when they grow up?

Do dogs shed their milk teeth just as we humans do?
Yes - Puppies loose their "Baby" teeth just like humans do - They usually start loosing them at around 4 months and will continue until they're around 7-8 months until all their baby teeth have been replaced with Adult teeth.
Reply:yes they do. you will find the teeth on the floor usually by their food bowl or something like that.
Reply:Dogs loose a set of teeth just like humans do. They loose them at around 5 to 6 months and then they will grow in there new teeth pretty quick.
Reply:Dogs do have "baby teeth" that they will lose at 4-6 months old. They are often swallowed by the puppy after they fall out.
Reply:They lose them. Will fall out, swallow them.


They hurt bad!!


I have a 13 week old Lab puppy. She uses me as her own chew toy!!
Reply:Yes they do. My husband was right there when he spotted some blood on my dog's lips, at about 4 months old, and the baby teeth just popped right out onto the hardwood floor.





Dogs usually eat these teeth and sometimes they get buried in the carpet and vacumed up.
Reply:Yes dogs loose there teeth. They usually loose all there baby teeth by the time they are four years old.





Over the years the adult teeth will dull down but it usually isn't a problem. some senior dogs however have to have there food mixed 50/50 dry and wet food.





Its recomended to get your dog a teeth cleaning about once a year and that way the vet can advise you of any problems your pub may encounter.
Reply:yes they will lose their teeth between 4-6 months depending on the breed...usually you will not notice because they are eaten or are just tiny and get lost in the shuffle...this also happens for geriatric dogs...keep their teeth healthy by brushing and later on getting dental cleanings from your vet...if you start getting them used to brushing their teeth when they are younger then it will make your life easier when they are older because they will be used to have their teeth brushed
Reply:yes, we always found teeth in my dogs toys, the ones made of string, but of course they grow back. its natural.
