My puppy's adult teeth are growing next to her baby canines. Is this normal?

Question

Hi, my puppy is getting her adult teeth. I’ve been checking her for a while and I noticed that the adult canine teeth are erupting right beside her puppy canines on both sides of the upper part of her mouth. Is this normal? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | spayed | 5 months and 6 days old

Yes, this is normal. Sometimes small breed puppies may not lose the puppy teeth correctly, if the baby teeth are still there at 8 months of age, have her examined by the veterinarian. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
