Is it normal for a 4 year old dog to start losing its teeth?

At 4 yrs old there should be no reason why they are losing teeth. All their adult teeth should have been in by the time they were close to a year old. I would take the dog to the vet and find out what is going on.

This is no were near normal. You need to go to the vet ASAP. There is something seriously wrong. Good luck! Keep us updated...
Reply:No, it's not normal at all. The only reason they would fall out would be severe decay, which needs to be addressed by the vet or it can spread to other teeth as well as the jaw bone.
Reply:for teh most part no unless it's the food you are feeding.


Also there are a very few breeds that do loose their teeth at a very early age. The best is to take the dog to the vets as there may be underlying reasons for this to be happening.
Reply:No, not unless he chews on cement. You need to take him to the vets. He could have a really bad infection in his mouth or in his jaw bone. Dogs don't usually lose their teeth unless there is something wrong with them.
