Baby tooth or adult tooth?

A tooth just came out of our puppy's mouth while we were playing. (Actually it was my husband playing a little too rough). It bled some. Does it look like its a baby tooth? It was one of the pointy (canine?) teeth on the bottom jaw.

About 5 months. And my husband thinks he can see another tooth behind where the one was that fell out.

It looks like a baby tooth to me. The root disintergrates as the new tooth grows behind it.

That's a baby tooth alright.

Count yourself lucky that you actually FOUND one of his/her teeth! Those are almost IMPOSSIBLE to find!! I never found one of Jaylie's teeth.
