I went out and bought some toothpaste for my dog, but I'm a little unsure of how to actually go about brushing his teeth. He's been having them cleaned at the groomer's but the last couple of months I have been bathing him at home to save money ('cept for his recent visit, of course). His teeth are not in terrible condition, but he does have some minor caries around the gum line and I want to try and keep that under control for obvious reasons.
Does anyone else here brush their dog's teeth? Got any tips for me? He's a pretty good dog about these things, he doesn't fight, rather he tries to skulk away from baths, undercoat brushing, etc. But the thought of trying to keep him still and hold his mouth open while brushing his teeth seems, well, nigh on impossible for me to imagine.
Help.
