I just brought Isabelle for her first dental cleaning. Her breath was just kickin! I am guilty for not brushing her teeth. So many of my friends who have dogs say they never have to brush and they have no problems.
Is it just a Yorkie issue?
The vet said Isabelle is in the beginning stages of periodontis disease. She said out of 6 stages, Isabelle was a 2. The worst were her back teeth. Her gumline was red and would bleed a bit when I tried to brush.
They cleaned her real well and they gave me some dental polish to take home. I have to polish her teeth once every 2 weeks. |
