My 4 months old Golden Retriever has started losing her teeth. Very little blood drops i can notice on her gums. Is this normal? What can i give her to soothe her pain?

Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi

At this age the milk teeth will fall and then permanent teeth will start to erupt U can apply ice cubes on the gums

Dr. Anukarna Singh

Similar to us, canines also have a set of deciduous/ milk teeth which falls and are replaced by their permanent teeth. This process starts at 4-5 months of age and completes at around 8 months. You might see your puppy teething excessively at this point. You can use puppy grade toys or carrots and cucumbers (you can also keep it in the freezer for some time before you give it, this will help to reduce inflammation) to help reduce the discomfort.

We can give carrots kept in freezer. Won't they catch cold .... many told not to give food direct from fridge

Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi

Keep the carrots outside for 10-15 min after that u can give them to the pet
