I've found that over shot bites can improve with age but only so much. If like you say it is a very large gap, I doubt it would ever be perfect scissor. I'd keep her until she's 14 months old though and if its not corrected by then it probably won't. The vet is right though it's most likely a hereditary issue. Buying a show potential puppies is a risky endeavor and many become frustrated with growing out puppies but switching breeds probably isn't the answer either, they all have there issues. Besides anything worth having is worth waiting for. Maybe you would be better off to save your money up and buy a show quality teenager or young adult. They may cost more but at least you know what you have by then.
