My puppy's baby tooth is loose, adult tooth growing. Will it fall out?

Question

My puppy is 4.5 months and she has an adult Lower canine growing along side her baby canine. The baby canine is very loose but has not fell out yet. Will this tooth fall out on its own? How much time should I give the tooth to fall out? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | spayed | 4 months and 12 days old | 10.1 lbs

Dr. Strydom, DVM · Accepted Answer

Yes, the tooth should fall out on it's own by the time she is about 6 months old. DO not pull it out or you may break the root. Just leave it be and check on it periodically. If it does not come out on it's own by 7 months of age then your vet should check her out.
