Dogs are security guards and defenders by the most nature, even those from them who treats representatives of decorative "toy" breeds therefore teeth for them not just the tool for chewing of food. Good, strong teeth are a pledge and an indicator of health of a dog.
Instruction
1. As well as many representatives of group of mammals, dogs are born without teeth, they begin to grow in 3-4 weeks and only by the end of the 5-8th week they have the first set of dairy. At the same time even at representatives of one breed the first teeth can appear with a difference in 1-2 weeks. Them in a set only 28 – on the upper and lower jaw about 2 canines, 6 cutters and 6 premolyar are located, puppies have no molars. The period when at a puppy teeth are cut can be followed by unpleasant feelings and even an easy indisposition. At those puppies at whom already ears well stand they can fall again. At this time dogs can begin to spoil things – szhevyvy them "to scratch" gums, they begin to bite more often too.
2. The second attack of vandalism begins at puppies when there is a change of milk teeth with constants therefore the owner should not become angry about the chewed slippers, and to provide to a dog special "chewing" toys. This period begins approximately in 3 months and can proceed to 8. Or loses milk teeth of a dog during the game, or just swallows when eats. As a rule, they drop out under pressure which is put by already growing second tooth, and on the place dropped out, in the formed hole, you will be able to see at once what grows on change.
3. Veterinarians note that than the breed is larger, that change of teeth happens quicker. At dogs of small breeds, Yorkshire and they are terriers, this process is dragged out and represents a vital issue as some milk teeth do not manage to drop out yet when growth of constants begins. The owner should examine more often a mouth of a puppy and in time to extract a milk tooth if it prevents to grow to constant. To help it to drop out, include in a puppy diet more firm food – the carrots cut by large pieces, crackers, special stones.
4. When changing teeth, the first cutters, as a rule, begin to change, then there is a change of premolyar, appear radical, the last canines grow. In a set of their second teeth already 42 pieces, 20 are located on the lower jaw, 22 – on top, completely their change comes to an end by 7-8 months.
