Yes, they do loose their baby teeth. Just like children. Now, as far as the bleeding.. if it was only a spotting of blood that's ok. If it was excessive it may be that your pup somehow got his baby tooth/teeth tugged on and yanked before it was time. Some of the teeth come out individually and some come together (several joined in a row).

Hello Fiona, yes puppies lose their teeth just like us humans. My Chihuahua is 9 months and got all his big teeth, but still has some baby ones...if he doesnt lose them naturally soon he will need to see the vet to have them removed just like us and the dentist! Enjoy your new puppy!

Gradulations! I cried when my pit lost her first tooth. They will lose their teeth, most of the time they swallow them and this can cause an upset stomach and vomiting. Sometime, they will lose their teeth in a soft chew toy or on the floor. Beware, if the tooth falls out in the carpet it will come back and bit you. (literally) My Pit lost a tooth at my moms house and it took my mom over a month to get the tooth out of her toe.

Yes they do. If you look inside the mouth where the tooth has come out of the gum there will be another (adult) tooth growing in right there. I don't think dogs are ever really toothless.

Yes they do. They usually start losing their baby teeth around 3 months of age and usually have all of their adult teeth in by 6-7 months of age.

Oh yes the puppies do loose their baby teeth. Was the blood excessive? Shouldn't have been.

Puppies do lose their baby teeth, but there usually isn't a lot of blood involved. Are you sure that one of her permanent teeth wasn't knocked out?

Yes they do.It is hard to find them though just in case you are wanting to save them.They should never bleed a lot, some and sometimes not. If you have carpet it will be even harder to find her teeth. They swallow them sometimes too.
