Dogs eat poop and have to brush their teeth. It is best to buy a special toothbrush for your dog, as well as a toothpaste of his favorite flavor. Reach out and hold your dog’s mouth gently, then open your dog’s lips and gently brush in the direction of your dog’s gum line. Dogs should never use human toothpaste because human toothpaste contains fluoride and other ingredients that can have a bad effect on the dog’s health if swallowed. If the dog is resistant to the toothbrush, the owner can use a softer washcloth, or a cotton ball dipped in water, and then scrubbed with dental powder. In addition, to keep the dog’s oral health, the owner can usually feed the dog some fiber more food, so that the dog chewed food in passing to clean the following teeth.
