How do you tell the age of a Pug? The age of a Pug can be estimated based on its teeth. There are only deciduous teeth under 2 months old, canine teeth are gradually replaced at 2-8 months until all permanent teeth are replaced, molars are replaced at 8-10 months, and 1-year-old teeth are replaced. They are evenly grown and have no cusps on the incisors. The cusps of the lower incisors are flattened at the age of 2. After that, the canine teeth gradually wear out and begin to fall out after the age of 10.

For details, please refer to the table below:

About 20 days later, the small tiger teeth on both sides gradually grow out unevenly, with small white tips emerging.

In 30-40 days, the deciduous incisors will grow in full.

At 60 days, all the deciduous teeth have grown in, are pointed and tender white.

2-4 months, the first deciduous incisor is replaced.

5-6 months, the second and third deciduous incisors and all deciduous canines are replaced.

Over 8 months old, all teeth will be replaced by permanent teeth.

1 year old, the permanent teeth are all long, smooth and strong, with sharp protrusions on the upper part of the incisors.

At 1.5 years old, the peak of the mandibular first incisor disappeared.

At 2.5 years old, the peak of the second mandibular incisor was lost.

At 3.5 years old, the peak of the maxillary first incisor was lost.

At 4.5 years old, the peak of the maxillary second incisor was lost.

At the age of 5, the peak of the third mandibular incisor was slightly worn, and at the same time, the first and second mandibular incisors were ground into a rectangular shape.

At the age of 6, the peak of the third mandibular incisor is obliterated and the canine teeth are blunt and rounded.

At the age of 7, the first incisor tooth of the mandible was worn to the root of the tooth, and the wear surface was vertically oval.

At the age of 8, the first incisor of the mandible was worn and tilted forward.

At 10 years old, the wear surfaces of the second mandibular and first maxillary incisors were longitudinally oval.

At the age of 16, the incisors were lost and the canines were incomplete.

At the age of 20, the canine teeth fell out.
