    We don't clean Tilly's teeth and don't plan to do Cooper's. Every time the vet looks at them they look great. They both chew on things all the time, including soft things that clean their teeth. Both of them have teeth in good condition. If the Vet says we need to do something different we will.

    Opps no edit button:(.

    Both of them always have good breath also. I should know, I get licked often enough:).

    My vet doesn't clean his Labrador's teeth. I tell him he is lazy, and he really should, and that's just not good enough. He agrees...but he is still too lazy to do it!

    Edited to add (hastily!) - this is just my personal view, I wasn't having a go at anyone who doesn't clean teeth! :D

    Ha ha this made me look back and enjoy the videos again.My method has evolved now Dexter is so 'old ' I mostly do it with the little Lintbells finger socks...he just lies back in his bed and let's me do one side ,then I say 'and the other side' and he gets up and lies down the other way ......if you are like me and don't give bones I think it's really important to do.....Dexter has a friend that is the same age,eats the same brand of dog food and doesn't have bones and Dexter's teeth are much cleaner.
