I know at three months of age puppies loose their first set of teeth,
but can dogs shed teeth at any age and grow them back? Scooter is
5 months now and I noticed he lost a tooth this morning and I witnessed
it, he wasn't chewing or eating anything at the time, all of a sudden he
just spit out a tooth! Is this natural at this age? Sorry just a concerned
poodle mom.

Maddie will be 3 months Oct. 15 and will start shedding her teeth as well
I presume.

It depends on where the tooth came out. Was it a canine tooth? I'm assuming it was because those are the last to come in.

Yeah, It was a canine tooth.

When pups are teething they tend to lose all the front top and bottom teeth first. This can go till they are around 4 1/2 mths. The ones he is losing now are the back ones, they take a little longer to lose. I wouldnt worry about it. The main thing is they are coming out so it saved an op to get them pulled
Just keep giving plenty of bones so each tooth loosens easily.

Thanks Sivaro, it makes sense to me now and it did happen to be a back tooth.
