My Bella is only 6 months old now and I haven't yet brushed her teeth. Is this necessary? Ive read people just do it ONCE a week, or once every other week to once a day (which is a little excessive in my eyes).
Do I have to have her spit out the toothpaste or is it safe for them to swallow?
What are the consequences of not brushing? |
Back in January of this year, I took a class at Feeder's Supply (a pet store here) for puppies and new owners. The teacher told us as well as showed us about brushing their teeth. We have to do it to maintain our health as with dogs as well. They make a dog toothpaste that you can find in your pet shop in your town. I brush Maxwell's everyday, tho sometimes I skip by accident. Today, I brushed them twice since he was digging up some dirt and eating it. Anyways, the doggie toothpaste is safe for them to swallow and comes in peanut butter (what I use) and chicken. Maybe other brands have more choices. Happy Brushing~!
