| Electric toothbrush?? Does anyone use an electric toothbrush for their pup? Way back when, I remember someone posting about it and having good results. I just can't remember who. If you do, can you please share what kind of toothbrush and what your results have been? Thanks!!

| Lisa, Sugarmamma, and her girls Sugar and Curri are the champion electric toothbrush users. She uses the Sonicare, which I cannot live without for myself. Some dentists recommend the Braun. Those are the 2 best. I have been trying unsuccessfully to use the Sonicare with my boys, using the softest head. They hate the sound.

| Yes, it was indeed Lisa (I think I've come a bit late to the party...!!! ). I, too, tried it on Harry - and he didn't like the sound either...think he thought it was a bee buzzling around near his mouth...he wouldn't have ANY of it

| I want to try it with Kaji. He lost 3 teeth at his last dental. I don't want him losing any more.

| It was me . Sugar is a champ! Curri only fights me a little bit - I started out with pushing mashed chicken into the bristles when I brushed so she would accept the brush into her mouth. I could only get a few seconds at first. Now we brush for at least the entire 2 minute Cycle and sometimes more. Bought the smaller compact heads. Good luck! Just text me if you have any questions. I can show you a video of Sugar being brushed

| I wish Winston would take to an electric toothbrush. I brush his teeth every day and he can't make a year w/o a dental procedure. He is a tartar factory. I tried the petosan electric toothbrush since it was the quietest one supposedly and he was so scared of it.
