Thanks to regular teeth cleaning, you will not be familiar with such a problem as bad breath from the dog. In addition, this procedure is an excellent prevention of tartar and gum disease.
Why You Should Brush Your Dog's Teeth
Many dog owners doubt the necessity of this action, pointing out that in the wild animals do not brush their teeth.
However, pets require slightly different care because they do not eat hard foods that naturally clean their teeth.
Because of soft foods, domestic dogs tend to accumulate plaque, which over time turns into tartar.
The latter, in turn, causes bad breath, provokes gum disease and even tooth loss.
How to brush your dog's teeth
Wrap a bandage around your finger and wet it with water, or better yet, apply special toothpaste for dogs (human toothpaste is not suitable).
Brush slowly, using circular motions. Cover each tooth from all sides.
This should be done once every 3-4 weeks.
