Homework - Dental Health Month

Did you know that it's Pet Dental Health Month?
What are you doing to care for your pet's teeth?

Chewing and rinsing are good, but brushing is the best way to take care of your pet's teeth, and should be done daily to achieve the greatest benefit.  Good oral care is extremely important for your pet's health, and prevents many health problems that can result from an unhealthy mouth.

Doggy breath isn't "normal" if your dog has breath you should investigate the cause with your veterinarian. 

Your homework this week, is to commit to brushing your pet's teeth daily.  Remember to use a toothpaste made for dogs!  There are also wipes and gels available to make your job easier.  Share your experience with us in a comment below!
