What's going on with a dog's tail wagging
In the days spent with dogs, we have long been accustomed to their joyful running with wagging tails, and their dancing tails seem to be their unique language of expressing happiness.
The teething period of a Teddy dog is a stage that every pet owner needs to pay special attention to. Understanding the teething time and precautions of Teddy dogs can help owners take better care of them and ensure they go through this period smoothly.
How many months is the teething period of a Teddy dog?
The teething period of a Teddy dog usually occurs between 4 and 6 months after birth. During this stage, Teddy dogs gradually replace their baby teeth with permanent teeth. Specifically, Teddy dogs start to grow teeth at around 20 days old. By 4 to 6 weeks of age, their baby incisors are fully grown, and by nearly 2 months old, all their baby teeth are present. Between 2 and 4 months old, the dog begins to replace the first baby incisor. At 5 to 6 months old, the second and third baby incisors and the baby canines are replaced one after another. Generally, after 8 months old, Teddy dogs will have all their permanent teeth, but some individual dogs may not complete teething until around 1 year old. During the teething period, the dog's gums are very uncomfortable, and it needs to relieve the discomfort by biting things. So, the owner should prepare teething tools for the dog. The baby teeth of a puppy before teething are very small and thin, but extremely sharp, which is why puppies are more likely to bite people and break the skin. The teeth of an adult dog are larger and thicker than baby teeth, snow - white in color, with closely arranged incisors, and the tips are more rounded than those of baby teeth.
The dental formula for an adult dog (permanent teeth) is: incisors, canines, premolars, molars, totaling 42 teeth.
The dental formula for a puppy is: incisors, canines, premolars, totaling 28 teeth. One premolar and molars are missing.
What should be noted during the teething period of a Teddy dog?
Help relieve pain
When going through the teething period, Teddy dogs are relatively weaker in body because teething is a very painful process. We can put a wet towel in the freezer to cool it down, and then let the Teddy dog bite it. This can greatly relieve the pain of the Teddy dog. However, it should be noted that do not directly give the dog a towel with ice cubes to bite, as the ice is very cold and the dog may easily catch a cold.
Prepare teething snacks for the dog
During the teething period, Teddy dogs especially like to chew hard objects to relieve tooth itching and exercise their teeth. Therefore, pet owners should prepare teething snacks for the dog in advance, such as some chicken jerky with moderate hardness, or large bones (such as pork or beef bones) for the dog to chew on and help their teeth grow better.
Appropriately supplement calcium
Teddy dogs need sufficient nutrition, such as calcium, for tooth replacement and growth. If they are calcium - deficient at this time, their baby teeth are not easy to fall out, and the new teeth are not easy to grow. During this stage, owners must reasonably supplement calcium for their Teddy dogs.
The teething period of a Teddy dog is an important growth stage. Understanding its teething time and precautions can help owners take better care of them and ensure they go through this period smoothly. By helping relieve pain, preparing teething snacks, and appropriately supplementing calcium, owners can effectively alleviate the discomfort of Teddy dogs during the teething period and promote their healthy growth.
