SarasMum Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) My 5 month old GSD is teething and has lost one top canine and the other is just hanging there. I have given her a couple of things to try and knock it out (apple, kong with spread in it) but its still there. Should I just leave it? Will it fall out or is there a time limit I should give it before intervention? Edited May 19, 2006 by SarasMum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceilidh Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 I would give her a meaty bone, like a shank, to chew on. That may help to bring it out. I wouldn't worry too much unless the new tooth is through and it is still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spikey Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Our Belgian Shepherd pup is 5 1/2 months old and now has a lovely mouthful of big, shiny white teeth! He and our adult Belgian girl tend to "tooth fight" a lot (difficult to explain, seems to be a particularly "Belgian thing" and involves a lot of wrestling and head waving with open mouths and bared fangs, with hissing and moaning and groaning going on) and a few weeks ago we noticed something white hanging off our other dog's ear (she has a long black coat with very hairy ears, so it really stood out!). On closer inspection, it was a big long baby tooth with all the icky bit still on the bottom of it - YUCK!!! I'm glad he's just about finished losing teeth!!!!
