Should my puppy lose any teeth?

My puppy that is 5 mo old has lost a tooth while we were playing with a pull toy. Should she lose any teath at such a young age? It dosent seem to bother her at all. She is a miniature Doxson.

Should my puppy lose any teeth?
Yep...puppies lose their baby...er...puppy teeth just like we do.
Reply:it should be fine
Reply:Yes , that is natural. Most of the time owners don't notice the puppy losing teeth. Puppies will lose there baby teeth just like humans.
Reply:That's fine. Dogs have baby teeth just like humans and your dog is at the age when he starts losing those baby teeth
Reply:yes this is about the time they will be losing them





most of the time you wont even know because they swallow them





around 5 to 8 months

Reply:It is okay when my dog was a puppy it lost some of its teeth
Reply:4-6 months is the age that puppies start to loose their puppy teeth. They will be replaced with larger, duller adult teeth. It is perfectly normal. You may want to get a towel wet and freeze it and let her chew on it, as it soothes the pain of teething.
Reply:It's completely natural. Like humans, dogs have to loose their baby teeth. Most of these teeth are never seen because the dog swallows them. However, if these are adult teeth she's losing, you might want to consider asking your vet, or playing a little softer with her.





Doxson is spelled "Dachshund."
Reply:Yes, all puppies loose their teeth like us humans. I am sure you have felt his razor sharp teeth when he is chewing on you. This will soon change and all his teeth will be softer and pearly white and he will keep those for the rest of his life. So no need to be worried or alarmed, it is toally natural for them to loose their teeth. He is all healthy and happy and I am sure he had a good time playing with you.
Reply:Yes, she is losing her puppy teeth. Most of the time you never get to see the teeth. They tend to ingest them. Just be happy you got to see it.


Pull toys, chew toys and similar things are great for teething puppies. Also, ice is good to relive some of the pain. You can take an old towel and soak it in water and freeze it for her to chew on. That will provide the numbing of the ice, but she can still chew as much as she needs to.
Reply:they loose their puppy teeth at about 4-7 months. by 7-8 months they should have alltheir adult teeth


If you aren't going to breed her this is a good time to get her spayed before she even starts her heat.
Reply:Yes, it is pretty posible. You know how some kids loose their teeth at a younger age than others? It's the same with dogs, some will loose their "baby" teeth sooner than others.





Even though most dogs start loosing their teeth at 6 months, I've seen some that began teething at 4 months and a half.





Since her gums may start aching I would recommend you to buy her some chew toys. They should be of rubber, so that she can bite safely into them.





I recommend you to buy her 1 as soon as you can, because some dogs, not having chew toys will start chewing into almost anything they can find during teething. Afterwards, their owners had a lot of trouble to take them off this habit.





Don't worry, just make sure that she bites into her toys and not into anything you don't want her to.
Reply:Yes, it's natural for puppies to lose their teeth. You own a mini Dachshund.....not Doxson.
Reply:This is perfectly normal just make sure to check for any inflamation in the mouth
Reply:OK. First of all, it's DACHSHUND. What the heck is a doxson anyway? Come from the same place as a rockwiler?





All young animals lose their deciduous (baby) teeth, and at 5 months, your puppy should have lost several of her baby teeth as the permanent ones come in. You may or may not see the teeth as they come out, sometimes they swallow them, which is no problem, or they may lose them outside. If, by the time you get the puppy spayed (which I HOPE you'll do before her 1st heat at 6-8 months), have the vet check for any retained baby teeth, mainly Canines ( the 4 big incisors on front) - if they are still present and the permanent ones are in, then you'll want to get them extracted at the same time, this will stop any mal-occlusion and unnecessary wear and crowding of the other teeth.
Reply:Yeah its normal, they are teething.
Reply:they are called milk teeth (or in people baby teeth) they should all fall out this is fine and why puppy will be wanting to bite alot around this time


get a raw hide and start teaching good things to chew and bad things to chew
Reply:thats normal she will lose all her baby teeth and get adult teeth
Reply:Your dog will be fine. It is normal for a dog to lose teeth at 5 months old. my puppy who is 8 months now started to lose his teeth between 4 and 5 months of age.
Reply:Yes they are like humans they loose the puppy teeth and adult teeth grow back.
