At 10 y.o, Princeton had 2 teeth pulled at his last vet visit and he had one pulled at the visit before that...and I am so worried because we aren't able to put him under to clean his teeth right now and he's 6 months overdue on his yearly cleaning. I've been brushing his teeth to try to help the situation, but I know he could use a cleaning.
It seems like Yorkies are notorious for having bad teeth!! You definitely have to pay special attention to their dental care...more so than a lot of other breeds. I see lots of Yorkies on Petfinders who have had to get all of their teeth pulled out...some of them at a fairly young age...like 5 y.o. and then their poor little tongue hangs out, making them just that more adorable!!
I am wondering if anyone's tried the stuff you add to their water. It looks like mouthwash and comes in various brands. Or if anyone has bought the "plaque buster" that is advertised on TV?!? I am wondering if either of those work?!? |
