Determining the age of a puppy is relatively simple - puppies have deciduous teeth (also called baby teeth or milk teeth) that erupt through the gums then are lost at fairly standard times over the course of the puppy's first two years of life. After this, it becomes something of a guessing game - different dogs have different wear patterns on their teeth, and there are genetic and breed differences in the strength of the teeth. However, a veterinarian can generally give a reasonable estimate based upon body condition, size, coat color and overall impression.
