I was looking at Teddy's teeth, and noticed the bottom front row looked like baby teeth! They have that kind of serrated edge if that makes sense! I've attached a photo to show you. My other small dogs teeth are straight with no serrated bits. Are Yorkies teeth like this as adults? My aunts Yorkie has 4 upper canines, as she has 2 retained puppy teeth. Teddy has adult canines and there is no evidence of 2 rows of teeth anywhere.

I'd have the vet take a look at the teeth, as some could be retained baby teeth...which would need to be pulled...

The vet looked at his teeth today, and said she thinks his teeth are all his adult teeth.
