Nancy you did an awsome job

Your so talented.
I loved it. I laughed out loud about Joey thinking about it

Thanks once again Nancy for taking the time to put something
so important together and teaching other's about dental
hygeine.

P.S. I almost forgot about the twinkle. Perfect, your too good.

Oh, I so glad you saw the twinkle, I spent as much time on that as the whole video! Steven Spielberg and his fancy Industrial Light Magic, look out!

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear about your home, but I'm so glad Uni is ok, she's such a little dear. I know, yorkies do have a bad reputation, Joey is the most challenging dog, I've ever had, but I think it's because they are so independent and smart. You have to be smarter than the dog to teach it something!

What a cute vid!

I am really neurotic about Thor's teeth; we brush every night. I do my teeth, and then I do his. There have already been some great tips, but I wanted to share my technique to get Thor brush ready (I got this from LilMissy originally).

Thor used to HATE getting his teeth brushed, and it was such a struggle that his breath was really bad even right after we'd finished. I got beef-flavored tooth paste, and started by rubbing my pinky finger along his teeth. I did this every night for about a month. I didn't push it too hard, but as he got more comfortable, I started rubbing the front ones, making him open his mouth so I could get the back ones, etc.

Then I re-introduced the brush. I actually got one for cats because Thor's mouth is so small. The brush is about three inches long. I started by letting him lick a little paste off the brush, and then I would do a couple teeth very softly. After a week, I was doing all his teeth, + gums!

It was so worth it to train Thor to accept the brush. It literally takes five minutes, so I think it's very worthwhile to make it a daily habit.
