Content: Teeth are a reliable measure of age whether your pup is a rescue or not. In fact, studying your dog’s teeth may be the most accurate resource when investigating how to tell the age of a puppy. Teeth are a particularly reliable way to determine a puppy’s age because your dog will lose all baby teeth before he/she is about 6 months old. However, not all dogs follow this typical progression. Your vet is an expert in predicting dog age using a teeth chart and should be used as a resource. This is especially useful during the transitional time when your puppy is losing baby teeth and gaining adult teeth. After all of their adult teeth are in, it’s harder to determine an age range by studying their teeth. If you’re generally interested in learning more about your pup’s teeth, the American College of Veterinary Dentists breaks down the nomenclature of teeth in your dog.
