Teething

Small plastic bag & three of Yakira’s teeth

Yakira is well into the teething process. I’ve found three teeth so far. She lost all her tiny front teeth a few weeks ago. But they are so small that finding one of them is almost impossible. With every puppy I think they are going to go through teething and I’m not going to find any teeth. But so far I’ve been wrong. I found the first tooth on Friday, one of her canines. The second was on Saturday. We were playing tough with her new rope she got for Christmas and one of her back teeth came out. I think this one may have hurt a little bit coming out. There was lots more root left on than usual. Then yesterday I found another canine on the floor. There is a small chance this tooth might be Osaka’s. She lost the last of her canines while she was here for a sleep over but it seems to be a good match in size and color or Yakira’s other tooth. I like to put the puppy teeth into a little plastic zip-top bag with their name on it. This way I can tell whose teeth are whose. One of these days I’m going to put together a little box for each puppy with things like their teeth and their puppy collars in it.
