Do Teeth Grow Back for Dogs?

[BigDog2191]

I'm just wondering because this is weird:

Somehow while I was petting Rocky today I noticed when he opened his mouth I realized:

His bottom right canine tooth is missing. I looked at it closer and saw that there is a little hole there like there is when you lose a tooth.

It's really weird and I have no clue how it happened.

Will he grow it back?

Rocky is just losing his "baby" teeth, just like you did, they will grow back.

AAAAWWWWW!!!! Rocky is losing his baby teeth! Keep an eye out for them on the floor if you want them! I have about 10 of Eli's I've always kept... it's precious. He'll have his "Big Dog Teeth" replacing them soon... just like with people...

Horses even lose their baby teeth, and I still have a few of one of my horse's when growing up. I've got a couple of his molars he lost and they're HUGE... about a 1 inch x 1/2 inch square of solid tooth each. My Mom was so nice to make them into earrings for me for my 40th birthday

My friend found her cat's baby tooth in her other cat's fur when she was grooming it. I thought that was pretty funny.

But he's 5 months old...

I didn't know dogs lost baby teeth.

they seem to go thru the 'teething' associated with losing baby teeth, so it's a good idea to give him those Kongs to keep chewing on. wow...our baby is 5 months old already! I bet he is a real beauty!!

BigDog, yes they do lose their baby teeth. The adult teeth usually aren't as sharp which is nice.
