Hello. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Yes, Binker should see a vet. You don't want to wait to seek treatment in a young puppy, especially one that is that small. It sounds like he may have sustained a jaw injury. Did he have any trauma that you know of? The other possibility is that he may be coming down with a virus. It is really best to get him examined sooner rather than later. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
