my 14 week old puppy has lost 3 teeth in the past 2 days! its sooo cute, on her bottom jaw, its the two right in the middle, and on the top, its one right above one of the missing ones on the bottom. she lost 2 yesterday and one the day before. i know she's supposed to lose them, but do they usually all fall out at the same time like this? i would be surprised if she was missing another one by the time i get home tonight. how long does it take the adult ones to start coming in? she looks like a little kid with the giant gap in her mouth.

well, 14 weeks isnt too too young, its about 3.5months. i remember losing my first tooth in preschool and everyone thinking that was really young. is there anything i can give her to help with the pain? we have this bone that you freeze and she can chew on, but it defrosts in like 5 minutes and then its just a puddle on the floor. she's been chewing on her knuckle and marrow bones a lot, but i dont know if thats just going to knock more teeth out. do human baby teething rings work for dogs? i dont want her to chew it apart tho.

This is very normal for that age. Your concern right now is how to heep her from eating your house. LOL. The losing and growing adult teeth is a painful process and she need's her own toy's to chew on. You can get human baby chew toy's to freeze that won't make a mess when they thaw out. That gives relief. Alway's have something for her to chew on handy when she chew's on no-no's. Never hit her, instead give her HER toy after a stern NO about chewing thing's she's not supposed to. You may have to crate her at night, everyone will be happier, and watch her every minute when she is loose in the house. I wish you and your new family member the best of luck and I hope you have a long and happy life together.

actually the dogs teeth usually fall out around 4 monthes old. it is early for 14 weeks. contact your vet and sask them for some answers. maybe she/he has a deficiancy of some sort.
