Does your yorkie like toothpaste? Teddy no longer likes toothpaste. I've tried vanilla mint, beef, poultry, spearmint, seafood and malt flavors. He hates them all. Teddy had a dental a few weeks ago and became a pumpkin when he lost some teeth. So, we have to brush and this little crazy boy doesn't want to do it. So I tricked him and put coconut oil on the brush. Before I knew it, Teddy was opening wide showing me his jack-o-lantern smile and brushing away! I'm wondering how many other yorkies don't really like to brush...and whether it really is just that they don't like the toothpaste... So, tell me, does your yorkie like toothpaste? |
wow... is the coconut oils good for the teeth and gums? Remy fights me like a wild animal... she does like the poultry flavor a little better then mint but still is non too happy! |
mine hate all toothpaste and brushing. i dont what i am going to do they wont even open up. |
Brody likes the toothpaste AND the brushing. Sophia HATES the brushing but loves the toothpaste. We use peanut butter flavor... it's a hit with my two :) |
oh yes, my crazy boy loves the beef toothpaste and he even brushes his own teeth, partly anyway. i put the toothpaste on and he likes to chew on the brush... |

Ziggy absolutely hates tooth paste and brushing.. He is getting better though. I'm hoping one day he will just sit and let me do what we have to do |

Neither of mine like it. If coconut oil works then I will be getting some! |
Tibbe liked his beef flavor but I've since gotten chicken & malt - neither of which he seems to care for. I told him I don't care for having him put to sleep to clean his teeth & having to worry the whole time so just lie back & open wide! |
I bought dental wash to use with a toothbrush and also wipes, but using the coconut oil sounds like a great thing also. I got an order from Tropical Traditions on Saturday, so I have yet to try it. I hope Katie likes it. I have read all about Healthymouth additive, and I plan on ordering it. also I like that the clinical trials were conducted by Dr. Dodds. I know it won't replace dentals, but it helps reduce tartar, I will be very happy. Katie has beautiful teeth, and I hope to keep them that way. I am a very strong believer that dental health makes a huge difference on the overall health of our babies. |
Jaeger is only 7 months-way too early to worry about dentals. Dr said his teeth look good, and we weren't brushing, just giving him dental treats, but we're switching from those to brushing. He didn't mind the taste of the tooth paste, wasn't too sure about the brush yet, so I'm brushing him with my fingers for a few days to get him used to it, then we will switch to the brush. |
I'm not sure Callie likes the toothpaste but she never fights me just lets me do it. She will lick at it when I show it to her but if she licks the actual toothpaste and gets it on her tongue she acts like its the worse thing ever. |
I wouldn't say he likes it.... he tolerates it, LOL. I'll have to try the coconut oil. I may do that tonight (I have some here). |
