It keeps Tibbe's breath smelling nice and his gums healthy. Takes about 2 minutes out of my day and the payoff is huge.
Tibbe had very, very bad breath when I first got him and had double rows of many teeth, 1 decayed tooth and bad, bad gums so I don't want my little baby to ever have to go through bad dental disease again. Just be patient and work a little at a time each day until it is accepted. If you want, I can PM you my technique but it is not hard at all. |
PM please.....I could use a new approach...Beau is just wicked when attempting to brush his teeth.
