Just noticed part of Dog's teeth is missing?
My 10 yr old female staff . I noticed 2 of her teeth have broken. Can't think how this happened, unless she did it whilst chewing her bone, the white ones?

She is molting like mad so she's maybe not been able to keep on top of it - although she'll let me brush her…
