Question
My Shi Tzu Dog its four months old , and her tooth is keep falling out I don't why? and I don't know what should I do?

Answer
Hi Martin,

Thank you for writing to me about your adorable Shi Tzu.  Don't worry about your dog's teeth falling out.  This is perfectly normal.  A puppy sheds his temporary teeth just like a young child would.  This makes room for permanent adult teeth.  Simply place them under your dog's pillow for the tooth fairy and see what magic will take place! (lol)

Best of luck with your precious dog.
