Chewing & Teeth
Teeth go downhill before you notice. Below is what helps put that off — from brushing to a stick that lasts for weeks.
Where do you start?
Brushing, or something like it
From a full set to a wipe around your finger. The less your dog cooperates, the further right you should look.
Chews that actually last
Chewing keeps teeth clean and the dog busy. One ingredient, never bleached or glued.
Frequently asked
How often should I brush?
Every day is ideal, but a few times a week already beats nothing. Pick something you'll keep up over something perfect.
My dog won't let me near his mouth. Now what?
Start with a wipe or the foam, not a brush. Failing that, the powder over his food is the path of least resistance.
Does this replace a dental clean at the vet?
No. Once tartar has formed you won't get it off at home. This is for keeping it off afterwards.
Which chew is safe?
Pick one that suits his size and jaw strength, and supervise. Take it away once it's small enough to swallow.
