Exclamation losing puppy teeth!?

Hi!!
my pup jack russel is 7 months old, and she was chewing on her toy today and i noticed that her tooth came out!!!this is the first baby tooth ive found. i looked at it and its empty,is that normal??is it supposed to be like a shell or is the pulp supposed to come out aswell?the pulp is still in her mouth where the tooth was but she doesnt seem to be in any pain. do i need to bring her to the vet to get it removed or is this normal and itll rectify itself? thanks for any help!!

Hi,
I think thats pretty normal. When My Alfie lost some of his teeth, they were like they were empty and my other 2 when they were pups were the same.

Yes most of the puppy teeth are hollow and if you look in the dogs mouth you can usually see the start of the next adult tooth. Hope this helps
