I forgot to add, we have brushed Cody's teeth everyday since he was fully trained to let us do it (maybe a month after we got him?). I guess part of his affinity for plaque is, just being a Yorkie, and his genetics.
Finally, he is a neutered male. We believe, if one is not planning to breed their animal, they should be fixed. Cody has a very sweet, compliant nature, which is why he has been successful with the non anesthetic cleanings. Our Pom, who is also a neutered male, just has a tougher temperament, is very high strung active and wiggly, so he could never qualify with his disposition.
Cheers! | So he has been under more then once?
