Title: Teeth
Post by: Debbie.nl.ca on February 09, 2011, 09:10:35 PM

I haven't had much dealings with teeth problems, outside of a couple of case of malocclusion in past years.Treated one for 6 years. Nothing recent.

My mosaic male Trooper {with no ears} didn't look up to snuff and when I checked him over found his bottom incisors where way long !!!!
I couldn't feel any jaw bumps or problems, no drooling, eye irritation nothing to indicate malocclusion. Nor did the vet.
So why would this happen?
Trooper will be 9 in April, his Mom is still here at 16, though I lost his dad at 13.
