Pups start getting teeth between 2 and 3 weeks of age. Depending on the breed, the pup can continue to "teeth" until he's 10 to 12 weeks.





In your case, I'd probably consider the pup between 5 and 6 weeks of age too.
Reply:hi there


pups start teething at about 3weeks and it sounds like your puppy is about 4 to 5 weeks too young for this puppy to be away from its mum pups should be with their mum till about 7 to 8 weeks , good breeders i think will agree, your pup will also teeth again when it is about 4 to 5 months when it will start to get its adult teeth. good luck with your pup as you will have to make sure now your pup gets everything it needs, talk to your vet again and get a feeding program started for one so young. good luck again
