Re: right upper canine broken...

My puppy is the same age and she just had the same thing happen. The canine split in half to the gum and the root is wide open. We called our vet and he said just to make sure she keeps eating and drinking normally and to watch the gumline for any change. He was more worried about the effects of putting her under to remove it and infection from that being worse than just leaving it alone. So far she doesn't seem to be having any problems and doesn't display any sensitivity. She's even chewing on bones with it still. I'm just hoping it falls out soon so that I can stop worrying!
