I am getting worried. My dog is a 9year old chihuahua/jack Russel mix. I have exclusively fed her dry food, outside of wet food on the rare occasion she got sick, and sweet potato slices/green beans as “human food”. She has had her teeth cleaned by the vet 3 times total. When she was a little she has several baby teeth removed that weren’t going my themselves. Her chews are her yak milk bones, bully sticks, and greenies, only ever supervised so I know she wasn’t going anything crazy with those either.

So why on earth has she lost two front teeth in the last 4 months. What am I doing wrong?? I don’t want her to live with her teeth getting loose and hurting before they eventually fall out. I always chalked up my parents chihuahuas losing teeth to them always being fed wet food, but now I’m not sure. Is it a chihuahua thing? I feel terrible that I’ve tried everything I can think of to keep her teeth healthy and it’s not working
