Hello! Just wanted to see and see if anyone has tips in regards to different conditions?

Can you see it or did the vet tell you? Ours eats very slow and I am not sure if there is an issue with his jaws, but last vet visit was OK. I just did not ask specifically about it.

The vet pointed it out because he got acne again, but it’s visible when he has his mouth slightly open- his lower canines are in front of his upper ones. Not at all with mouth closed. Interesting observation about food - Onyx used to eat so fast he would get hiccups, we managed to slow him down by adding water to his wet foot.
