What do the chewing surface of the teeth look like? Are they worn smooth or do the have what they call "cups" on them? If they are worn smooth, they are older/old. I just saw a chart somewhere on the internet that explained the age related dental changes. I wish I could remember where I saw it. Mini looks like an Appy? Good luck with her if you go forward.
 
Does she have a coggins? What does coggins say? Can you have a vet look at her? The vet would be waaaaay more accurate than me since I have no idea 🤣🤣

Good luck, you’ll have to let us know what you decide 💕
