How many teeth does a dog have?

Adult dogs have 22 teeth in the upper jaw and 20 in the lower jaw.


So 42 in total.

They will be in the mood to chew when they start growing them and will be very crabby.


Good Luck.

Like humans, dogs have two sets of teeth in their lives. The 28 baby teeth erupt through the gums between the third and sixth weeks of age.


Puppy teeth begin to shed and be replaced by permanent adult teeth at about four months of age. Although there is some variation in breeds, most adult dogs have 42 teeth, with the molars coming last, at about six or seven months.
