Dog Video - How to Brush Your Dog's Teeth

Posted by Clare Bristow

February is dog dental awareness month in the United States; a few months ago I explained how to brush your dog's teeth, and how to select dental products for your dog.

It's often easier to see how to do things rather than read about them so today I've posted a video in which Stanley Coren shows you how to get your dog used to having his teeth brushed - the key is to take it in small steps and have some great tasting toothpaste to hand!

At the end of the video Stanley Coren says you only need to brush your dog's teeth once or twice a week in order to keep his teeth healthy. Whilst this is better than not brushing at all, ideally you should aim for a daily brushing to remove the plaque and remove the risk of your dog suffering periodontal disease.
