I am always hearing that we should brush our baby's teeth - especially the yorkies who are prone to dental problems. Does anyone do this? If so, how often and HOW? My Benji is only 5 months old. His mouth and teeth are so tiny, it's impossible to get in there with my finger while he is fighting me. Ugh!
I do have a dental spray, but we have to pin him down to do this. It's awful! Any suggestions? If I use the flavored paste, all he does is try to lick me. Thanks!

Also, the suggestions for the chewing are greata! I will go home and use my husband's stick deodorant on the wood and freeze the kongs.!!!
