tiny problems

Hi there posting this on behalf of a friend. She has a yorkie about 6months old and is having a few problems.
Firstly her baby teeth haven't fell out at the front and he big teeth are growing in.
Second she doesn't eat much but is bubbly and healthy enough my friend is just worried cause she really doesn't eat much at all.

Rosie is tiny and great fun doesn't seem bothered by anything but any advice would be appreciated then I can let friend know.

Thanks Sam xx

Toy breeds do tend to retain baby teeth as their adult teeth erupt. This causes the adult teeth to be pushed out of line resulting in a malocclusion (bad bite). The baby teeth need to be extracted. If your friend gets this done soon the bite should correct itself.
