Probably because the teeth have rotted out due to not taking your dog to the vet to have them cleaned. Dogs need their teeth cleaned every couple of years. rotten teeth can cause infection in the mouth which can spread to the liver, kidneys and heart.

This is not normal and I have had alot of dogs that have hunted down rats, bunnies, cats, exc also they chew on pig ears, ribs and bones. My dogs always had theyre teeth. The dog probably isn't being fed the proper food. I would suggest taking him/her to the vet if you have not already. The dog very well cant eat dry food so you will need to feed him/her wet dog food. Also 13 years old is old, I have had a dog that lived till 17 but never lost her teeth.

He lost most of them, he's getting old! It's like how some people lose their teeth as they age... it's normal

Maybe he was in a fight or he/her ate a bone and they came off. Can he still eat? If not bring him/her to the vet.

He may have some gum disease. You need to have him checked by a vet as it could impair his ability to eat.
