Are dogs suppoed to lose teeth? (I hav a Pekingese)?

My dog is abt 6 to 7 monts old, and he lost a tooth while we were playing with a toy, and the tooth was stuck to the ball, which we threw out. Is this normal? (Sorry if it's stupid...)

Yeah, it's normal. Although many dogs will swallow their baby teeth or lose them in places the owners don't end of finding them.
Reply:Yes it's normal. You should expect all of his puppy teeth to fall out.
Reply:Yes. Dogs loose teeth during teething when the baby teeth need to make room for the permanent Adult teeth.
Reply:yes they lose their baby teeth just like people
Reply:Yes! Dogs lose teeth just like kids to make room for adult teeth.
Reply:Yup! Puppies lose their baby teeth to make room for their adult teeth, just like humans.
Reply:I think dogs have "baby teeth" like people, he should grow in an adult tooth in its place.

Reply:Puppies will lose their baby teeth just like children do. New adult teeth will start growing in very quickly. Your vet will check them on your next visit to be sure all is ok. My puppy started losing hers at 4 months.
Reply:Do babies lose their teeth to grow their new teeth,The answere you get is your answer...
Reply:Yes, absolutely fine. I wish someone would've told me when I got my dog - I was playing with him, doing the whole tug of war thing, and then four of his teeth flew out and he rocketed backwards from the force! Bless him! He's OK though, and he has a full set of beautiful teeth.
Reply:Ya totally!!!!!!
Reply:Yes very normal at that age..... could be an issue in an older dog, and Peks do have some dental issues.
Reply:Yes. All puppies loose their baby teeth as they grow. This makes room for their adult teeth. Don't worry. Slowly all of your puppies baby teeth will fall out.
Reply:yes they do loose teeth like humans dont u remember when u start loosing teeth?????????
Reply:I felt the same way when my Lab was losing teeth! It is very normal, it is just like how us humans lose teeth and why.
Reply:Yes, this is normal for a 6-7 month old puppy. Just like human children loose their baby teeth, puppies loose their puppy teeth, which are then replaced with adult teeth. If this happens when your dog is older, like after he is 10-12 months old or so, consult a vet because adult teeth should not just fall out.
