Teething Puppy's Mouth Is Bleeding

I have a 5 month old husky who has started teething about a month ago.
For the past 3 days she looses teeth but in doing so, her mouth bleeds a lot. Is this normal?

I think so because I have a husky around that age and he bleeds to.

This is perfectly normal and will subside in a short time.

Puppies usually lose their baby teeth up until they are around 6 months old. A little bleeding is normal, but a lot is not. You will see some on the item they are chewing on...like a rope or rawhide. But look inside the mouth and make sure that she has not broken off a tooth or has anything stuck in her mouth, especially look at the roof of her mouth. If she is pawing at her mouth or not eating well then she needs to be examined more closely for sure.
