My puppy is having her adult teeth coming in and she has on of her puppy teeth hanging loose. Should I try to pull it myself or give her plenty of things to chew on so she works it loose? Her breath has gotten horrible!

As a vet tech, I rec giving her lots of chew toys so she can work it loose. May I suggest greenies to help with puppy breath? If you work it out yourself you may leave part or a whole part of the root in there which may do more harm than good.
