Mia and Wickett · 06-13-2007, 08:35 PM

I'm new to yorkies and have had Wickett for 5 days now. I want to make sure I do everything right, which brings me to my first question. Tooth brushing.

How exactly do I go about getting him used to it? I saw the poll on how often others do it, and I'm thinking starting off doing it once a week or so would be good. My only issue is how to get him to let me in there. Any tips/advice on how to get him to be ok with that?
And.....do they sell doggy tooth brushes and tooth paste at pet stores? Or do you use people products?

Thank you for all your help!!
