He has sweet smelling breath as long as he gets regular brushings and yearly dental cleanings by the vet. Make it a lifelong habit to do this for your dog if you never do another thing! It is sooo beneficial for a Yorkie to have excellent dental care.

Hi! I bought that toothbrush few days ago and it is genius! I wanted to say thank you Yorkietalkjilly!

. Maya just sits and relaxes when I brush her teeth now. for all those members here who have a puppy, I strongly recommend to start brushing their teeth as soon as you can! I did it with Maya and it works perfectly!

This is what we do as well.

YT member Brendarash told me about using guaze wrapped around my finger. I like that as I can really feel what I am doing but I like that one that Cathy, 107Barney suggested.

A finger brush has always worked good for me.

There's a place in town that sells them for $1 each.

I have a small cat Petrodex red toothbrush! Great size

Also, vet said to use gauze pads (like the surgical supply kind not cosmetic) wrapped around my pointer finger with a bit of paste (or no paste).
