I started with a normal dog toothbrush. Just recently I tried the soft toothbrush that goes over your finger. Baxter has gotten to the point where he will let me do this Chloe will not (she is the puppy). It just takes time for them to get used to it. Once it becomes a routine, they will be fine.
I also use Dental Fresh by Synergy Labs. It REALLY helps! You just add it to their water. Baxter's breath was TERRIBLE not too long ago. I started using this and it smells great now! It removes plaque and tartar and freshens breath. I like to use it because I am sure that I don't get their teeth brushed perfectly. This is just an extra precaution. |
