baby teef

Piper is nearly 6 months old now, and she's losing her teeth at the speed of light. Well, maybe not that fast, but they're falling out here and there. On Sunday, she lost 3 teeth in a row. She was in a lot of pain, and it was pretty sad. I caught a little of it on video:







I saved this particular tooth and plan on scrapbooking it. Weird? I think not. I just love her to death. All of her. Even her baby teef.

    Poor little Piper. Seeing her paw at her face is so sad. She is so cute and those ears remind me of how Baby looked as a little puppy!
    You sound like a very concerned, loving mommy!

    Hehe! The camera didn't capture it all, but she kept trying to put her paw at her mouth and she kept keeping her mouth open and closing her eyes, like it was visible pain. And she wouldn't look at us and kept her head down :[ For the 2nd tooth, she kept chomping on it, but it was still connected on one side. I *almost* pulled it for her to save her the hassle, but I didn't want to cause unnecessary pain and have her accidentally bite down and hurt me (accidental reflex, of course). But today she's been ok.. except she's basically laid by my side the WHOLE DAY and didn't want to get up at all. My wittle baby.. :(

    Aw poor Piper! I don't know WHERE Fenway's teeth are going. I think that he is swallowing them, because I check his mouth and teeth are missing, but no where to be found when I vacuum or sweep/mop my floors. I hope she feels better soon!!

    Okay, I have *never* seen a puppy in visible pain from losing teeth. It's so sad to watch! :(

    haha. I love Mark "Is that a tooth, or what?" Poor Piper. I'm dumb, but I guess I never thought about dogs losing teeth. I'm not looking forward to Leilu losing teef one day. :(
