Frequently young dogs have all their teeth only to have one lost due to shallow roots-this is a genetic factor- dogs around here have eaten the chain link and not lost teeth- missing is missing- nothing says that a Judge or anyone else should speculate how the tooth was lost- what if a dog had only one testicle- should the owner be able to produce a vets note saying the other one was taken off for a tumor?
