Do dogs change teeth or lose teeth?

Dogs will lose their teeth. Dogs will enter the tooth replacement period 4 months after birth, and will complete tooth replacement before they are 10 months old. During the tooth replacement period, dogs need to supplement calcium and eat more. For hard food, owners can prepare some teething sticks and bones for the dog to chew on to help the dog replace its teeth and avoid double rows of teeth.
