Did you know that your dogs teeth should be brushed twice a week?  

I have heard that before and donew that to my dogs couple times but I didn't keep doing it; I asked the doctor, he said I could get him some biscuit so he can chew, it helps cleaning his teeth as well.

My dogs get real bones and I have never had a tooth problem, I don't think my dog would let me brush her teeth, she thinks teeth are for biting.

I had no idea! I usually just brush mine with a toothbrush..no paste or anything. I also try to always keep them something harder to chew on. I have got those green snacks that are supposed to help their breath..I'll have to look for some doggie tooth paste. Thanks for the info!

I buy chicken flavored toothpaste for my dogs. They don't seem to mind it. I tried a mint flavored one time and they hated it. When they were puppies, they did not like having their teeth brushed at all. But now they have gotten used to it and as long as I buy the chicken for them, they are ok with it.

I don't have a dog but I did know that dog should have their teeth brushed because my mum and stepdad had a dog. I didn't know it had to be done so often though! and isn't it only if they aren't in the habit of getting a good bone to chew? I mean doesn't that help clean their teeth and keep the gums healthy?

I had never heard of that.....I know they have treats for dogs that clean their teeth but never knew you should brush them until just lately as someone I know took their dog to the vet to have it's teeth cleaned.

Yes they should be done at least once a week, with pet toothe paste. Regular toothe paste irritates their stomach and they get indigestion. We don't swallow the paste, they try to because it is in their mouth and for them it is a natural thing to do, in the mouth swallow, learned as a puppy..

REMEMBER ALWAS LUV/ CARE FOR YOUR DOG/ PET, THEY WILL ALWAYS LUV U..
