I am having brushing issues as well. We bought the kit that includes the finger brusher, the regular brush, and the toothpaste. Khloe is extremely uncooperative; I feel like I have to brush her teeth to prevent decay, but she yelps like she is getting a vaccination when I do so. I've examined her mouth also; no sores or anything that looks inflamed or painful. She is 2 1/2 months and is teething, so I know that she will be losing those teeth, but I want her used to routine brushings when her permanent teeth come in. Could it be the toothpaste brand? Any tricks to this? Anybody else experience this?
