 Teeth cleaning
I know many of you on here are not supporters of raw feeding and have no intentions of trying it, but I want to share something.
One reason I switched to a holistic vet was that my mainstream vet saw plaque on Teegy's teeth and said three things to me.
1. I can clean those for $900 (won't repeat what I said)
2. I have dental food (won't tell ya the response to that either)
3. When I mentioned I can find products that will clean that, I got a "there aren't any, but I can get you one"
He had already lost me at $900.
I went home did some googling and found Leba III, Petzlife and Healthymouth.
All these products are fantastic, I've recommended them to friends and family and the results are fantastic.
But the best inexpensive thing for teeth cleaning I have found to date are pork back ribs. One meaty little rib for them to happily chew on a couple of times a week has removed more plaque in a shorter time than anything I've tried and it's good for them.
So please consider a wee meaty bone for your furkids over anaesthesia and costly dental cleanings. I absolutely promise you it's not harmful, it's a species appropriate, twice weekly treat and how much does a meaty rack of pork ribs cost. Just be sure to cut them up and freeze for two weeks before feeding them to the dogs. I know many of you are concerned about bacteria etc., this kills any bacteria present. |
