| I use a finger brush and poultry flavored toothpaste I got at Petco. They usually start losing their teeth at about 4 months

| I brush Ellie's everday because she has/had periodontal disease. We use CET vanilla-mint toothpaste (smells like rootbeer floats) and a toddler toothbrush. You can get the toothpaste at www.entirelypets.com.

| Petzlife is mint. I like it so much better than the nasty poultry flavored ones. I find that if I brush after they eat their breath stays nice until they eat again and get kibble breath! I have it on my website. Barkaholics

| Thanks Erin! I just ordered some petzlife from your site! Can't wait to start cleaning my furbutts teeth. I just noticed when I was brushing them the other day that they had some tartar buildup on their back teeth. I hope this stuff works!
