| Jazzi and Willie have joined you Jazzi and Willie live with my husband and me on the eastern shore of New Brunswick, Canada. We are both retired and busy as can be. When Willie was three we decided to get him a companion because we golf a lot and hated leaving him alone for a few hours. She has been a blessing and what a personality. We sure have a lot of laughs with them around. A couple of years ago, at a general checkup at the vet's, we discovered Willie had to have some teeth taken out, turned out to be six. I was very upset about this because I brushed them faithfully a couple of times a week. At a friend's suggestion I bought an electric toothbrush with two separate heads and have been using it with pet toothpaste nearly every day, and at another checkup found that Willie has to have more teeth out and Jazzi has plaque on some of hers. Any thoughts how to avoid this happening again? |

| Welcome to YT! Can't wait to see some pictures of your babies. I would definitely check with your vet for cleanings.
