I was just informed that February is officially National Pet Dental Month and I didn’t even get our dogs a card! I think that the $500 in dental cleaning that was spent on the two of them last year is gift enough. Since then, we’ve been doing our best to brush their teeth every Sunday to prevent the huge buildups of plaque that has plagued them before their teeth were cleaned. This article on About.com about pet dental hygiene suggests that you brush your pets teeth every day. When talking with our vet, she suggested to do it once a week. If you need tips on healthy dental habits for pets, downtown LA pet store Pussy and Pooch is having a workshop from this Sunday 1-4 PM. Happy brushing! (and here’s hoping your pets are more cooperative than our dogs)
