Yep they sure do.
My shepard puppy got hold of a coconut and within a week he lost alll his baby teeth and the new ones were already visible.
I got another puppy and while playing with her, I found out that she had a loose tooth. Remember how your teeth would get loose and kinda just be hanging on by the nerve when you were a child? My puppy had the EXACT thing. lol
Once they have a lot of stuff to chew on, the irritation of the new teeth or the irritation of losing those stubborn teeth is eased for the puppy.
My puppies sure do love that coconut to chew on.

yes, this is completely normal. They lose them just like we do.Sometimes you'll find the teeth but then sometimes they do end up swallowing them which is completely normal also and it doesn't hurt them. Just beware of maybe a little more chewing on things right now since the puppy is losing its baby teeth.

Yes they do and if you plan on getting it fixed ask the doctor when you take him in to pull any remaining puppy teeth, my vet pulled out 3 of our puppies teeth for her because she kept swallowing them.

Don't worry. All puppy's loose they're teeth. Its like how humans loose they're teeth. He mite swallow them, so watch him closely. Its OK though if he does. He'll probably try to eat food without chewing good enough, so watch out for that too.
Hope I helped!!!!!

Yes all pups loose their milk teeth and the perment teeth will come in. They also loose their molars. Make sure you have some good chew toys around to help the new teeth come in.

yes, it is normal... puppies lose their milk teeth and it will be a permanent one after the milk teeth is gone.
note: give it some balls or toys... this will help loosen the tooth!

And a good thing they do. Can you imagine having a dog with those sharp, needle teeth all their life.
