    yes. ALL puppies teeth, all puppies loose baby teeth and get permanent teeth.

    that's why they chew everything. and why you should provide TONS of chew toys.

    their ears do "flop" at first but should start to stand up once they reach maturity. *a lot of breeds that have erect ears do that*

    dogs just have bad breath...big breeds, and small breeds. there are flavored dog chews, doggie toothpaste etc for that if it is very offensive to you.

    also if it smells very foul have a vet look at it. that could be a sign of tooth decay.

    a lot of chihuahuas ears do drop while they are getting the adult teeth you can get dog breath mints to help with dog breath but most do not smell bad due to teething

    Yes most breeds with erect ears, the ears will fall when they are teething. Their breath can sometimes smell a little like blood when they are teething.
