OMG, that's such an old post I'd forgotten about it!!
I actually don't use the wipes anymore...I use a toothbrush (NOT a finger brush...I can't get very far back with those). They make double ended dog brushes with a small end and a big end, and I use the small end. I DO have to pull her cheek out by gently pulling on that hair so I can slip the toothbrush between her teeth and cheek. That being said, I think if the wipes are what you want to try, you should go for it!! The brush is working better for me now, but I did start with the wipes. I found the ones I was using at Petsmart (
Four Paws Pet Dental Wipes for Dogs - Health Care - Dog - PetSmart) and Petco (
Pet Food, Supplies & Accessories at PETCO -- looks like John Paul Pet makes some too!!), but I'm sure you could search for dog dental wipes online and find ones you could just order. Good luck! Hope that helps!!
