GRADUALLY INTRODUCE YOUR DOG INTO TEETH BRUSHING!

Gradual Introduction:
Start with Treats: Let your dog get used to the taste of the toothpaste by applying a small amount to your finger and letting them lick it off.
Introduce the Toothbrush: Once your dog is comfortable with the toothpaste, introduce the toothbrush and allow them to lick the toothpaste off the brush.
Gently Massage: Once your dog is comfortable with the toothbrush, gently massage their gums and teeth with the brush.

Brushing Technique:
Angle the Bristles: Hold the toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to the gum line.
Focus on the Gum Line: Pay extra attention to the area where the teeth meet the gums.
Brush the Outside of the Teeth: Focus on the outside of the teeth, where plaque tends to accumulate.
Use Gentle Pressure: Avoid applying too much pressure, which can irritate your dog's gums.
Short, Regular Brushing: Start with short brushing sessions and gradually increase the duration as your dog becomes more comfortable.

Make it Positive:
Praise and Reward: Use positive reinforcement, such as praise and treats, to make brushing a positive experience for your dog.
Be Patient: Some dogs may resist brushing at first, so be patient and persistent.
Make it a Routine: Regular brushing, even a few times a week, can help prevent dental problems.

Additional Tips:
Consider Dental Chews: Dental chews can help clean your dog's teeth between brushing sessions.

Guide to which brush to use on your dog:
1. Slicker brush:
These brushes are excellent for removing mats and tangles. If your dog has a medium to long coat, or a curly coat prone to knotting, a slicker brush can be very beneficial. Slicker brushes are used on many dog breeds, including: poodles, shih Tzu, Maltese. It is the best and most useful brush for a thorough brush. Our groomers highly recommend!

2. Rakes:
Undercoat rakes are designed to pe*****te thick coats and remove loose undercoat hair without damaging the top coat. They typically have longer, widely spaced dull teeth. Breeds such as Huskies and German Shepherds with dense undercoats benefit greatly from regular grooming with an undercoat rake, especially during shedding season.

3. Pin brush:
Looks like a common human brush with its oval shape and long handle, but often the least useful. They will pick up loose hair before it is shed onto your furniture, or finish and fluff a well-brushed coat, but provide little benefit to your pet. They are best used to finish off the grooming process, or a great way to introduce brushing to a puppy that's sensitive to brushing.

4. Bristle brush:
Bristle brushes are used on short-haired, smooth-coated dogs that shed frequently. Their clusters of tightly-packed natural bristles will remove loose hair and stimulate the skin. Bristle brushes can be used on breeds such as Pugs, Italian Greyhounds, Jack Russell Terriers, and Boston Terriers.

Trimming your dog's nails after a bath is a good idea because the nails are softer and more relaxed, making the process easier and less stressful for your dog. Why After a Bath?:

Softened Nails:
Bathing softens the nails, making them easier to clip and less likely to splinter.

Relaxed Dog:
The massaging motion of cleaning your dog's fur can relax them, making them more docile for nail clipping.

Dampens Clipping Sound:
The sound of nail clippers can be startling for some dogs, and the dampness after a bath can help dampen the sound.

Just ten minutes a day with a puzzle toy like a snuffle mat can make a huge difference for an older dog, especially a pup showing signs of cognitive dysfunction or dementia. Variety and interest are key—and a snuffle mat accommodates the need to change things up.
