Huskies are a popular breed of dog known for their thick fur, striking blue eyes, and friendly personalities. They are also known for their unique dental structure, which includes a set of puppy teeth that are eventually replaced by adult teeth. Knowing when huskies shed their puppy teeth can help you better care for your pup and ensure they have a healthy mouth. Puppies are born without teeth, but they start to grow in at around three weeks of age. Huskies typically have a full set of 28 puppy teeth by the time they are eight weeks old. These teeth are sharp and pointy, and they are used to help the pup chew and eat. As the pup grows, their adult teeth will start to come in and push out the puppy teeth. The process of shedding puppy teeth usually begins when the pup is around four months old. The incisors, which are the front teeth, are usually the first to go. The canines, which are the sharp teeth on either side of the incisors, will usually be the next to fall out. The premolars, which are the teeth behind the canines, will usually be the last to go. The process of shedding puppy teeth can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months. During this time, the pup may experience some discomfort as their adult teeth come in. This is normal and should not be cause for concern. However, if the pup is in pain or seems to be having difficulty eating, it is best to take them to the vet for a checkup. Once the puppy teeth have all been shed, the adult teeth will be in place. Huskies typically have 42 adult teeth, which include incisors, canines, premolars, and molars. These teeth are larger and stronger than the puppy teeth, and they are designed to help the pup chew and eat more efficiently. FAQs Q: How many teeth do huskies have?
