To prevent any health problems, adopt a good dog dental care by brushing the dog’s teeth. At first there may be a bit of resistance, on the dog’s part since it is a new experience however shortly your dog will learn to like and most likely love the tooth brushing. Brushing your dog’s teeth should not be a chore for you or your dog.

Instead, it should be an enjoyable time for both of you. Brushing your dog’s teeth every other day is great, but twice a week should be sufficient. If your dog won’t tolerate a full tooth brushing session, try doing the top teeth one day and the bottom teeth the next day. Plaque and tartar buildup, periodontal disease and gingivitis are all major contributors to dog breath. Your vet can show you how and recommend how often you need to do it.
