    Hi there! Haven't posted in a while... Life with Juno is going well... 8 weeks down the line and things are settling in to place nicely. But my concern is her puppy teeth Juno has just turned 4 months and have noticed today she is missing 4 of her front teeth (the tiny ones right at the front, two at the top and two at the bottom!!). Is this normal to lose them so quickly? I thought it was the back ones which go first? I am worried she has broken them off rather than falling out naturally!!

    Juno sounds normal to me, but only have Kenzi as a guide, front ones were the first to go for kenzi. she'd lost all of them and new ones in by around 6months, i think the back ones were the last to come in.

    The same happened with Pongo (and yes, around 4 months-ish). He was all gappy for quite a while (poor boy..... couldn't help laughing at him....).
    The only awkward ones were his canines, they didn't come out cleanly and were hanging on sideways for a while with the new ones already visible underneath (in the end we very gently tweaked them out for him).

    He was soooo proud of his strong new adult teeth!
