3. Be patient, and relax. The enzymes in the toothpaste will work even without brushing. If your pup has a lot of plaque on his teeth, you won't get it all off in one sitting. It may take weeks even months to clean up their mouth. But each time will get better, just don't stress to much over it. Your pup will pick up on your anxiety. Make it fun!
I have and have used Enzadent with the finger brush. My vet told me to make a game out of it. Cooper enjoys it but I just don't feel like I'm really doing a whole lot. I rub, and he bites on the brush while i'm doing it. I can't imagine how I could do it more effectively.

Leba III says you cannot use any other dental product while using Leba III. I'll give it a few more days before I start brushing.
