Foreword
If the dog was raised as a puppy, then all owners will accompany their dog through a period of grinding teeth, but the grinding period of puppies is different from that of humans, they do not need to pull teeth (in most cases), deciduous teeth will fall out by themselves and grow quickly, sometimes the owner may not notice that the dog has replaced teeth. Kimi's sister's family raised three small milk dogs from 2017 to 2018, two of which were family colleagues'deer dogs and Teddy, and one was Kimi. Today, I would like to share with you the experience of the dog's tooth replacement period.
Kimi's tooth replacement time
The time of tooth replacement varies with the type of dog and individual differences. Most dogs have a tooth replacement period of 3 to 6 months. Kimi was born on March 21, 2018. On August 29 (5 months), the last big teeth were mature teeth, and the side and front teeth were still deciduous teeth. By September 11 (5 and a half months), all the teeth had been replaced.
A record of the period of changing teeth
The Teeth Change Period of Doudou, a Fawn Dog
When Doudou was changing his teeth, we often gave him some molars, probably because he was small and his teeth were more fragile. Once, when he ate a hard molars stick, his deciduous teeth were broken and there was a little blood. We were very nervous at that time and prepared to observe for a few days. If there was a problem, we would take him to see a doctor. Unexpectedly, three or four days later, the new teeth would grow out.
Teddy Liuliu's Teeth Change Period
Liuliu slept in bed all the time when he was young. During the period of tooth replacement, he often made a grinding sound at night. Later, when he was holding him, his deciduous teeth fell to the ground without warning.
Corgi Kimi's Teeth Replacement Period
In order to get Kimi used to brushing her teeth in advance, she started brushing her teeth on August 20 (exactly 5 months). By the beginning of September, her gums were bleeding a little every time she brushed her teeth. I guess it was because of the period of tooth replacement, so she stopped brushing her teeth temporarily. In mid-September, after the end of tooth replacement, there will be no bleeding. During the whole period of tooth replacement, there will be no deciduous teeth falling off at home. It is estimated that they were swallowed into the stomach.
Preparation for tooth replacement
The dog's teeth are itchy during the period of tooth replacement, and it is easy to break up the house. Kimi gnawed several corners and floors of the house during the period of changing teeth. During the period of changing teeth, we should prepare more teeth-grinding snacks and toys for dogs to alleviate the symptoms of itchy teeth and reduce the damage of furniture caused by dogs to some extent.
Sum up
That's all for today's experience. The three little milk dogs we raised had a smooth period of tooth replacement. We just spent more time on the purchase of teething products. In addition, the owner basically did not worry about it. But if the dog has double teeth and other conditions, it is recommended that owners take the dog to the hospital.
