Who would think that your job as a dog owner would involve brushing your dog's teeth? Well, dog's can have bad breath just as people do. When you brush your dog's teeth, then you can enjoy those little doggy kisses with fresh breath, not doggy breath.
Keeping your dog free of plaque and tartar buildup is very important. Also, it helps with the small of your dog's breath, which is good for us as the receiver of those sloppy kisses. Brushing weekly can work wonders on your pretty canine's smile so brush away.
One thing you might be thinking is "how am I supposed to brush my dog's teeth?" Well, since you can't teach your dog to rinse and spit, you use a special doggie toothpaste. Also, you can purchase a finger toothbrush in the dog pet supplies section of your local pet store.
Exercising our dogs usually involves playing with a Frisbee or tossing a ball or sticks. Well, these things can break your dog's teeth. It's a good idea to check your dog on a regular basis for broken or chipped teeth so you can eliminate infections which can result in large vet bills. Keeping our dogs healthy will extend the life of our beloved friends.
Catching a dog's teeth problems early can eliminate having to have the tooth pulled. Infection can lead to other medical problems for your dog so make sure that all infections are addressed early. Your dog can't tell you when he's sick or injured so be proactive with your pet's health.
Broken teeth can cause infections in the mouth that can also lead to bad breath. Remember that when you are brushing your dog's teeth, that you check regularly for anything that doesn't look right. Act immediately to make sure that the infection gets under control quickly.
Make sure when you are playing with your dog, you are using appropriate doggy toys. Teeth can get broken when you are using things that are not dog friendly for your dog to catch or retrieve. Always make sure that the item you are throwing for your dog to catch is size appropriate for your dog.
Check out the dog pet supplies section at your local pet store or ask your vet which are the best toys to get for your dog. There are many soft toys that are easy on the teeth that your dog will love. As many dog owners can tell you, for a dog, it's all about destruction.
As your puppies grow and their adult teeth start coming in, they will become big chewers. Rawhide bones are great for this time in a puppies' life. Changing out the toys as they start to get torn up is safe and will eliminate the risk of choking for your puppy.
