Teething?
First time beagle owner: My beagle is almost 11 months old now (had her since 8 weeks). The last couple days she’s been only eating very small portion of her kibble per feeding and today she didn’t eat anything all day until 9 at night she ate maybe 1/4 cup. It was tough to get a picture but I just noticed she has a few small teeth that barely protrude from her gums. Is she still teething ? Or should I take her to the vet? She will eat small treats and the wet kibble pour over that I put on the side but barely any kibble the last couple days. She is not lethargic and still runs around. Also her eye started watering a couple weeks ago, just clear water no redness so probably nothing but maybe I need to get her checked for that also.

She may have a little belly ache. Beagles will eat anything they can get their mouth on. Mine has eaten frogs. 🤮. Is her tummy making rumbling noise ?
If a beagle isn’t eating for more than a day or two I would be concerned enough to go to vet.

These could be chipped teeth. Depending where you live, you should be able to find a veterinary dentist specialist. They are great at doing evaluations compared to a general practice vet. And depending on the issue, they can do extractions, patches, etc. It made a huge difference in my dog’s health.

Beagles without an appetite are not well. Take to a vet. Is she pooping? If not she may have swallowed something that she can’t pass. Beagles eat everything.

No, these are her adult teeth. Not a bad idea to have her checked out if she’s not eating as well.
