Teething Question
So, Geyser, who turned 14 weeks old today, has just lost her top front teeth. Incisors, I think they're called?
My question is this; is there some rule of thumb about how long the process takes once it starts? I remember something like 2 months, but just curious.
She looks like a toothless granny in the front now .

Yeah, you are on the right track! She should have all her big 'uns by 7 months.
Careful playing tug in this next couple months.

My 6 yr old(2 legged child, not 4 ) is singing that this year... he's missing 4 of his front teeth. I love this age! He looks like a goon!

The top front adult incisors are partly in now...pretty cool to watch this process. I can see on her gums where the gums are lighter from the pressure from the teeth trying to erupt...

Re: Teething Question
Not funny if you have ever had a young dog, that had just gotten his adult teeth and decides to flip around on the chain that ties him on the bitefield where he can watch the action. Chain vs teeth. Chain won. Made for a life long goofy smile. jouw favoriet Ivo, MarjoleinMarjolein wrote:You're not sure? What did you hit the poor puppy in the mouth with

If you did, then Sadie should get the reward!
