Most pets do not have the habit of cleaning teeth, especially for dogs, dental care is very important, which requires the assistance of pet owners. The reason why some dogs are unwilling to cooperate with brushing teeth is mainly because they have not developed the habit of brushing teeth since childhood. Of course, it is also very important to master the correct method of brushing dogs’ teeth. Friends who have not mastered the correct method can learn it.
1. Simple operation method
In the early stage, you can gently caress the dog's gums with your fingers. At the beginning, just rub the outside. Once your dog has fully adapted to this behavior, you can open its mouth to wipe the gums inside it at the same time.
After the dog slowly adapt, we can wrap our fingers around gauze to brush the dog's gums. It is best to use some toothpaste specially prepared for pets, so that after a few weeks of repetition, your dog will naturally be happy to accept it.
2. Professional brushing methods
When brushing dogs' teeth, it is best to choose a soft bristle pet toothbrush made of artificial fiber . At the same time, extend the toothbrush between the teeth and gums at a 45-degree angle, and rotate and circle the teeth. Then brush up and down to wipe off the tartar between the teeth.
Repeat this step until the tooth surface is clean. Brushing the inner surface of the teeth will be more difficult because your dog will resist exposing its mouth, but in the end you should be able to brush the inside and outside of the teeth.
Generally, you have to brush your teeth twice a week to achieve a clean effect.
But even if you go like this for a long time, you will still accumulate and form tartar , especially adult schnauzer . Therefore, we often scrape tartar to help them reduce oral odor, which is beneficial for them to chew food and promote good appetite.
must make the dog accustomed to opening his mouth to clean his teeth since he was a child. If it is an adult dog who has never experienced this cleaning action, you may not be able to complete the job smoothly, and on the contrary, it will make it feel scared, causing some psychological shadows, and even refuse to let the referee touch his mouth in the future. Therefore, letting the dog get used to it since he was a child is a very important issue.
Many people are surprised when they see some dog owners scratching their dogs, because they wonder why the dog is so obedient and able to tolerate people holding metal scraping sticks to scratch their tartar constantly. In fact, the secret is only "let it get used to it since childhood."
