How do you brush a dogs / puppies teeth , HELP ?
The very best standard is to brush every day however I know that it is not always possible so any brushing is better than none. The type of brush you use depends on the size of the dog. A fingerbrush is great for small dogs but a larger brush purchased at the petstore is good for medium and large dogs. You will also need to buy toothpaste either at the petstore or your vet's office. Do not use human toothpaste because flouride is toxic to the kidneys and is meant to be spit out not swallowed. Pet toothpaste comes in many different flavors so choose based on what your pet likes. This is what we tell our clients at my vet hopital regarding getting your pet to accept toothbrushing. First start by using your hands and massaging his muzzle. This gets him used to being around his mouth. Once he is used to this introduce the brush without toothpaste. The final step is to start using the paste. Don't worry about brushing the inside most of their tartar build up occurs on the outside of the teeth. Happy Brushing. Oh yeah... once your pup is good for his teeth brushing this is a great job to pass on to children. If they are old enought to brush their own teeth they are old enough to brush the dog's teeth.
Reply:I got a finger brush and poultry flavored toothpaste from the vet. I decided to for twice a week brushing. I also gave him a nylabone which gets rid of tartar.
Reply:well you can get this thing that fits over your finger... like a glove, except for only one finger, and you just brush their teeth with that.
Reply:Don't tell me:" You just registered with a vet to see about your dogs life health care program to get his first shots against rabies and dogs disease. No doubt the Vet told you to brush your dogs teeth.... 100 years ago, did we brush our dogs teeth?


No...... 50 years ago ? No.... You want to prevent Tooth stone, the same as we get. Dental treats are a new kind of product line in the Dog foods Industry... We go al mushy over our Pet because we want it to have a perfect Life, even if ours is not. The Industry just picked up on it, Of course your Vet keeps special diet foods for sick animals. Brushing our dogs teeth is just about the latest in care products, for people who treat their dog as Humane as possible..... When your dog is healthy and cared for properly, he probably will not get tooth stone... Dogs that are being fed cheese, cookies, sugar, Ice cream are specially at risk of getting the same cholesterol related illnesses as we do and of course rotten teeth that will inflame because his saliva can't handle the sticky stuff. A real bone, that he can gnaw on, keeps his teeth clean in between meals. Dental chew, is to develop his jaw muscles. I gave my dog such treats as well.
Reply:I say treat the dog like a dog. A dogs teeth don't need brushed; but if you're worried about dog breath, give them a dog biscuit every once in a while.
Reply:You should brush your dog's teeth twice a week.
Reply:We have two dogs and we dont brush their teeth we just have them chew dog bones everyday and it cleans their teeth so you dont have to. Hope this helps.
