Show us yer teeth!

A little while ago it came to our attention that just about the only thing lacking in our doggy routine, was good dental hygiene. Now, we have various chew toys; rope tugs, nylabones, marrowbones etc and we have beef knuckle bones, but there were still a few pesky bits of nasty plaque on their back teeth from the food we had prior to Orijen, (especially on Buffy and Rafferty's) so we decided to try out a few different products!

First, we invested in a toothbrush, we chose the Petosan SilentPower.


Then a well reviewed toothpaste.


And finally, a good plaque remover.


All in all I can't fault these 3 products, although we're not using the toothbrush much, the girls don't like it much, so rather than stress them we use a piece of rough lint to clean their teeth :)
We've been using the Logic and Fortan for about 3 weeks now and have seen vast improvements tbh. Unfortunately we didn't take any 'before' shots, but here's their teeth 'after' -


 See that piece of plaque in the middle of her back tooth? The entire tooth was covered in a thick layer when we started!
 Same story for Raffertys too, she had a lot on her fang teeth as well, which is mostly gone :)
 Monroe's are pearly white! Just doing 'maintinence' work on hers now :)
Ditto for little Lily :)

Buffy and Rafferty both need a little work still, as you can see, but over all a major improvement, which is great! ^^

That's all for now folks,
Love & licks,
Rio, Jonny, Buffy, Rafferty, Monroe & Lily.
