Is there any way to make this easier. He know what his toothbrush is and runs every time he sees it. I don't know what else to do....
Is there an alternative to actually brushing, like something to chew on that will do just as good?
Also should I be brushing his teeth daily or weekly.... well 7-10 days when he gets his bath? 
Thank You for listening and any advice you are willing to give me!

dentist told us at least 3 times a week. You can get CET Chews they have chlorhexidine in them from vet. Try the pet wipes i get from drsfosterandsmith.com
Pet Dental Care: Drs. Foster & Smith Dental ClensŪ Pads for Dogs
chlorhexidine kills bacteria in mouth and i like the wipes just wrap around finger or cut in half and use that and do circular motion on each tooth so it gets up under the gum line
mine are too spazzy for tooth brushes
i do it before bed and eventually they get use to it - you can try to put a towel on washer or dryer as i groom mine on there and wipe teeth each night - you can give a special treat after as a reward - i do this as my girl is a spaz with liquid meds and it is working better now
