I just bought Amy a tooth brush & paste set and I'd like some input and advice.
Today is day two of brushing Amy's teeth. I got the tooth brush out, put some wet food on it, and Amy munched on the tooth brush. I was able to do some brush strokes while she was chomping away. Is this a good way to start - using food?
She has smelled the toothpaste on the toothbrush and it seems she likes to lick it and not bite on it. And Amy squirms around constantly when I've tried to massage her gums. Perhaps it's because she's in heat?
Also, would feeding her after be a good idea? For a reward?
I could easily hold her down and do it, but I wanna make this fun for Amy and I'm willing to take the time to make it work.
