Hi, new to the forum!
I'm getting a new puppy in a few weeks and the one I have my heart set on appears to have a level bite with the front teeth being level. The breeder initially wanted to send this dog abroad as a show dog but has now said we can take this one as it wouldn't be perfect for show. The breeder says there shouldn't be an issue for a pet dog (my intent) but I just want to do my own research rather than blindly taking someone's word for it. I'm struggling to find out what kind of issue this could be, if at all, long term. He has no issues with eating as is but is it risky taking a puppy without a bit of an over bite / scissor bite?
The dog is a keeshond.
