Yes your pup is getting her adult teeth. Puppy hood and teething is often the time that periodontal conditions set in so prevent it now. 80% of all dogs have this condition with can lead to bad breath, tooth loss, heart/kidney disease and auto immune conditions.





Rather than use artificial bones, pork ears or rawhide give the dog a meal of raw meaty bone instead. This could mean a chicken drumstick or a slab of ribs depending on the size or your dog. It needs to be big enough for a real work out!! The meat flosses between the teeth, exercises the jaw and massages those sore gums while the bone scrapes plaque and tartar or the teeth. My dog has been fed a raw diet of meat, edible bones and offal since we brought her home at 9 weeks and her teeth are perfect. So are the three cats.

Reply:She's still losing her baby teeth. don't worry.
Reply:She's losing her milk (baby) teeth, its perfectly normal for her age. You can help the process by giving her lots of interesting toys to chew on (so that she isn't tempted to chew your shoes). Her gums are pretty sore right now, my puppy is going through the same thing at this moment. I take an old (clean) sock or dish towel, soak it in water, and freeze it for a few hours. The cold helps to soothe their sore gums, and my pup loves to sink his teeth into the soft material.
Reply:Its still just a puppy, calm down.
Reply:yeah all puppies lose a couple of their teeth, but most of them swallow them. luckily, my dog spit out hers.. lol i thought it was a cute little thing hahahhaa
Reply:she could have somthing stuck in her teeth try to take her to the vet
Reply:take the chew toy away from her for a couple of days - it may be only that the material may be too tough for her to play with.


if this doesn't stop the bleeding, take her off to the vet, it may be something as simple as she needs an alteration to her diet to keep her teeth and gums healthy.
Reply:no, she's fine...





she is loosing her baby teeth...





dog usually just eat the teeth





you will see blood stains on toys...or where she chews...not to worry...it is very normal
Reply:My boy is 6 mos.old today and I've been stepping on teeth for 3 weeks now. I have a collection I put in a heart shaped box. It's just puppy teeth coming out. I give him ice cubes to chew on and he loves them. I also found something at a pet store called a ChillyBone. It's a bone shaped toy that has a sponge thing in it and you immerse it in water and put it in the freezer for a few hrs. I just keep it in there all the time and when Jr. seems to be having teething issues, I give it to him or hold it for him while he chews on it. Your little girl is growing up!
Reply:Yes, you should take her to the vet to be sure it's nothing real serious or to start treatment NOW if it is. Also, it could be what you're feeding her...don't just feed her soft (canned) puppy food. Make sure you're giving her dry dog food designed for puppies and depending on what breed of dog she is, large OR small breed formula, to make her USE her teeth. Check with your vet to be sure, but make sure the % of CRUDE protein is at least 27%.
