My 3-month-old Shiba Inu hid under the sofa, acted aggressively and bit people. I hit it once with a broomstick and struck its teeth. One of the two upper fangs broke halfway and the red interior is visible, while the other is loose and hanging from the gum. I gave amoxicillin and used an oral antibacterial spray for two days.
