Puppy Teeth
 

I just got my first pup, so maybe you guys can help me out. When do labs lose their teeth? Mine is 3.5 months old and just lost 2 canines. Is there anything I should be doing for her? Do I need to back off on the retrieves? She's been doing very good until the last couple days, when she started having trouble picking the dummy up. Thanks for the help.

At 3.5 mounths ya dont need to worry that much about all kinds of strict training, so if the pup dosnt want to retrieve dont make it. For the first few mounths make everything into play, if he/she dosent want to do it any more find something else to work on, but keep it fun and informal.

I have never trained a lab, so I may be wrong

Labs will start losing teeth between 3.5 and 4.5 months of age. It usually takes about 5 - 6 weeks for all the teeth to come out. During teething, I'd suggest using an old sock stuffed with old socks or a paint roller for any retrieves that you do.

Thanks for the help. She is right at that age. I'm not to strict on her. We go out for a little while in the mornings and evenings. I let her attitude determine what we do.
