I have a vanilla mint flavor from my vet. It was decently priced. I like it because it has a minty smell so it helps her breath a bit.

I only brush their teeth twice a week (we just started at christmas) but I want to get it up to almost everday. The people that had a 2 year old before us, didn't brush her teeth--so we had the vet clean them yesterday (hopefully that will help with her breath).

However, I find it kind of annoying when I get tooth past on their facial fur. I pretty much find I have to bath them to get it completely off. but it could be because I am still new at the brushing (and the fact that you would think i was trying to murder the two year old when I brush her teeth--she HATES it!)!
