First I find out that puppies have belly buttons, now her baby teeth are disappearing.
It started with a little blood in her water dish. For about a week now, each day has another tooth or two missing. Already new ones are growing in on top — let's hope they aren't as sharp. It doesn't faze her one bit, and we never see the teeth that fall out. She must swallow them, which is too bad, cuz I miss out on puppy tooth fairy action.
