Brad Higgs Webboard User Reg: 06-13-2010 Posts: 511 Loc: Western Australia Offline	My girl has some tartar on her teeth, seems like alot to me not that I really know but I'm wondering why she has so much and my boys have none at all, not that I can notice, they all eat the same diet and there's nothing different in any of the things they do? Any ideas?? Is teeth brushing a good idea, not looking forward to trying that with her

You just have to go slow and keep it all positive when you start out. Plan on brushing one tooth very lightly your first time, like three seconds of brushing. Finish with a nice treat. Go slow. Depending on how bad her teeth are she might need a pro cleaning. Be sure to ask the vet next time you go.

I think when it is time to get a new sonic unit, I will save this one I have and use it for the dogs! Great idea! Joyce Salazar

I hope so, it sounds like a plan... I can't wait to give it a try. I may have to go out and get some new brush heads just to give it a try! Joyce Salazar

Brad Higgs Webboard User Reg: 06-13-2010 Posts: 511 Loc: Western Australia Offline	Thanks I'll give it a go never thought of using that! As far as age goes she's only just gone 13 months and her brother hasn't shown anything on his teeth (yes I made the mistake of a brother/sister combo, big mistake) nor my eldest at 17 months. Curious as to why it's only on her, is it a sex thing??
