How To Brush Your Dog’s Teeth – Dog Teeth Cleaning Tips
[Music]
hi I’m Katrina zish and this is my dog
Tallulah today we’re going to learn how
to brush to a list
it’s very important to brush the dog’s
teeth because just like humans dogs can
get a buildup of plaque and tartar which
can lead to gum disease or even more
serious health problems and to help us
do that is dog trainer and licensed
veterinary technician Mike de Bru’s Oh
Mike thanks for joining us you’re
welcome
so Tallulah has never had her teeth
brush before and I’m a little scared
that she’s not going to like it cuz it’s
not something she’s used to what is the
first step in making her comfortable the
first thing you want to do is take a
little bit of this toothpaste and this
is chicken flavored toothpaste and we’re
just gonna let her taste it mmm you see
that that’s pretty good not so bad no
not at all now if you have help like
this and someone’s holding her all you
want to do is just start with one tooth
so I’ll try this with the toothbrush so
she can get used to it and alls I’m
gonna do is lift up her gums and I go by
her tooth right there good girl where it
meets the gum line cuz that’s where most
of the tartar builds up I’m just rubbing
it in a little and we’re gonna let her
lick it if she did fine with that I can
do a little bit more because she seems
to be pretty calm about this so I’m
gonna lift up her gums and I’m gonna go
a little bit on the back molars here
girl there we go good job she’s doing
fine she doesn’t seem stressed out you
can always go a little bit more so
you’re not really brushing her teeth
like we would brush her on teeth no dog
toothpaste is designed so it dissolves
the plaque so what you want to do is
smear it on the dog’s teeth and then
just let it sit there like debreu so
thank you very much for giving to Lulu
her first ever tooth brushing my
pleasure thank you
