Content: Learn the canine signs of aging and it will help you make more appropriate choices in the type of care you give your dog. First let’s talk a little about aging profiles of dogs. Small dogs can live up to 16 years, medium size dogs 10 to 14 years and large dogs, like a Great Dane size, typically live 7 to 8 years. Large breed dogs stay “puppylike” for 24 months or more, compared to the usual 12 to 15 months for medium and small dogs. Puppies: It is easier to tell how old a puppy is than an older dog based on their baby teeth: At one month of age, milk teeth start pushing through the gums
Permanent Canine teeth come in around 5 months of age
The last permanent teeth to come in will be the back molars, those come in between 5 and 7 months of age
Ridges and Unevenness on the Front Teeth: At about 1 year of age, a dog will have ridges or bumps along the tops of their 4 front incisors, top and bottom jaw. Front incisors are the teeth that your dog uses for that nibbling type of grooming. As he ages, the bumps will wear down.
