[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 658975, member: 4152"] Awe! Dieter sounds precious. I let our Doxie taste the PB toothpaste and I could tell she liked it. She let me brush one tooth today. I will try the gauze tomorrow. HOWEVER, I am shocked out of my skull how bad her teeth are. They have never been this bad. I'm not sure I made a dent in the cleaning of this tooth. Has anyone else (thank you GN)had their older dog's teeth professionally cleaned? The vet said she would lose some teeth if they cleaned them and there was some risk (death!!!!!!) I'm going to call tomorrow to ask more questions. I would NOT want any teeth pulled unless it was absolutely positively 100% needed. She would get an EKG to rule out if it was too dangerous. I can see where the peanut butter toothpaste will work this time, plus the behavior modification (treats). I will never let it get this bad again, plus wouldn't consider prof. teethcleanings after this possible next one. Going North...how long did it take Thomas to recuperate after that cleaning? Did he lose a lot of teeth? About how many? How often do you thing most dogs should get their teeth prof. cleaned? [/QUOTE]
