Choosing Dog's Toothbrush



The type of toothbrush you use for your pet would also determine the quality of the mouthwash he gets. You would find several styles of toothbrush in your pet stores. You should choose the one that works best for your dog. A good dog toothbrush should be easy to use, safe and effective. It must also be easy to clean and acceptable to your pet.
A good dog toothbrush must also be easy to handle. Choose a toothbrush in relation to the size of your dog. For larger breeds, it is best to use finger cot brushes. Finger cot brushes are double ended with a part that looks like a finger glove. This glove has bristles on it and allows you to brush the inner parts of your dog's teeth.
It is recommended that you clean your dog's teeth once in a month or you could consult your Vet for guidance on how often you should brush your dog's teeth and all other necessary information. If you notice a building up of Tartar or anything unusual in your dog's dentition, consult your Vet immediately for help.
For busy pet owners who barely have time for pet grooming, do not neglect your dog's grooming needs. Hire a professional groomer for help.
