I let them have a couple of tiny licks of the toothpaste which they love, and I'm talking and saying...oooh that tastes sooo good...you like that?...then brush one small area with light circular motions. Give another tiny lick, kiss doggy...good boy...brush...repeat. This is the only way I have found that they will actually let me brush their teeth. It kind of a bonding experience too. Teddy gives me lots of kisses when we're done and lays down beside me. When I used to use brushes he would squirm and try to get away and run for the hills as soon as I let him go. |
Lol! That's so funny! I'd like a vidio clip of that.
