I have been trying since we brought Loki home to teach him that the tooth brush is ok. However he just wants to chew on it. 2-3 times a week I try and get him when hes calm and ever so gently try and brush his teeth, according to the vet this should work. Well it has not, he thinks I want to play and wants to chew on the brush or on me for that matter.
Hes not afraid of it by any means, I think he likes it in his mouth! But is this normal? Are there any other methods to this? Or should I just give up and try some of those teeth cleaning treats (which I hear are bad for him).
Also while on the subject - is doggie toothpaste required? or just suggested, because well among other things its expensive!
I have perused about the forums for this -but the search tool is sub par and going through thread by tread it tedious - I apologize in advance if this has already been addressed!
