Wow, that's horrible, may I ask how you were using it? Some people think you are suppose to brush with it, but it's not a toothpaste, you would have to use too much and the dog would swallow too much. You just put a tiny bit on the teeth 30 minutes after a meal or water. It's said to soften tartar, and make it easier to brush away at a later time with pet toothpaste. If you don't get any replies, both Wylie's Mom and Ellie May have spoken of alternatives that are said to be safe and effective, but I can't remember the names. You might want to PM them. Ellie May said the kind she recommended had to be purchased from a dentist. Besides using Petzlife, we use Merrick Bully sticks, and I think they do an excellent job of helping keep teeth free of tartar, and of course we brush, as well, with poultry flavored toothpaste. At three, Joeys teeth are white with no signs of any tartar.
