| Teeth I normally brush my dogs teeth about once a month and his breathe stinks and when I brush his teeth he gets mad it is very hard he bites me I use meat flavored toothpaste for him but his back teeth are becoming yellowish and everytime i brush his teeth his gums are beggining to bleed, what is wrong has anyone else experienced this?

| You need to take him to a vet ASAP. It sounds to me like me might need to have dental work done. You should be brushing your dogs teeth EVERY DAY, or buy the doggy dental wipes and wipe them down. Would you brush your teeth only once a month? No, then why would you only brush your dog's teeth once a month? I'm sorry if this is harsh, but I just can't believe it! I know it must be hard if he bites, but you have to do whatever it takes to care for your dog's teeth every day, just like you make sure he gets fed every day.

| I do use the doggy wiped daily but I only brush them about once a month we haven't had this problem in 2 years and no it doesn't sound harsh i probably should have mentioned that i use the doggy wipes and some stuff my vet gave me to rub on his teeth to help them stay healthy in between i use a finger like toothbrush to put it on

| I have the same problem and it's easy to say you have to clean the teeth every day. My sweet little dog turns into JAWS the shark if I even look at them , even the vet will not go near them unless she is under an anestetic. Her main food is dry and is supposed to clean the teeth as well but she is having problems. I wonder if there is a natural sedative that will allow me to clean them and also keep my fingers? |
