I found that I tend to get loads of hounds' teeth late game. It seems that the fire/ice hounds drop them more often (not sure if this is actually true, but it tends to be the case).

I'm currently on day 130ish, and I have nearly 3 stacks of hounds' teeth. Before day 80, I had about 20 teeth. So don't worry, you'll get them if you kill all the hounds during each attack.

If you're struggling to kill the hounds, beefalo are great for killing them. Just run over to a herd, and wait for the fun to begin. If it's mating season, the hounds will be killed more quickly as the beefalo will instantly go aggressive against them BUT make sure you have a beefalo hat to avoid being mauled yourself (you should try and get one anyway. Kill the beefalo which are further away from the herd and hope for a beefalo horn. A log suit, football helmet and spear should be enough).

Tooth traps are still best however, as there's less risk of the beefalo being killed or you being killed yourself. It also means there's less running away, as it can take a while for the hounds to attack the beefalo instead of you.
