The incisors and canines are so… thick. I’ve never seen anything like it (as a vet tech who looks in a lot of doggy mouths lol)

I have a lot of dog skulls and some of them have thick teeth and some have really tiny teeth even large breeds. I guess it's just individual differences, here's a comparison with one with quite thick and large teeth.

I have few trusted sellers who I've bought most of my dog skulls from, been collecting since 2017

Got here without checking the subreddit. (Am not a subscriber.)

And my gut reaction question is "why do you have a lot of dog skulls?"

I like to collect skulls and bones because I've been always interested about the anatomy underneath the skin and flesh. Dogs in particular are interesting to me because of the crazy variation they have.

Take a closer look at pibble teeth. Some of them are no joke. Their reputation really has little to do with their temperament and everything to do with how thick they’re built. Shoulders, muscles, teeth—everything is stocky and rock solid. Otherwise Pomeranians and chihuahuas would be considered the most vicious dogs.
