I guess this question is the wish of all parents. When I think of brushing the dog‘s teeth, I will jump for a while. The spirit of the border collie who would rather die is really when you think about it, when you get angry, think about it. Allowing Border Collies to brush their teeth willingly, unless you were trained from a young age or difficult to correct as they grow up. So what do we do if we want to brush our border collie’s teeth?
First, hold the toothbrush you need for brushing your teeth in your hand, and then squeeze an appropriate amount of dog-specific pet toothpaste on the bristles. It needs to be said in particular that dogs can’t use human toothpaste for brushing their teeth, but use special toothpaste for dogs, which is edible. Then pinch the upper lip in front of the corner of the dog’s mouth with the thumb and index finger of the left hand and gently lift it upward to expose the dog’s maxillary teeth, and then brush the outer surface of the dog’s teeth along the gap. Insert fingers from the corners of the mouth and pinch to open its mouth and clean the inside of the teeth. If the border collie is struggling to do this, you can temporarily replace the toothbrush with gauze, which is convenient for parents to operate.
Brushing a border collie should be trained from a young age. After it gets used to it, you can brush it every 1 to 2 weeks. In addition to brushing his teeth, he can usually let Bianmu chew on a toothbrush and other bite tools to remove food residues left on his teeth. Try not to feed your border collie anything sweet to avoid damaging the teeth.
Finally, if you find that the tartar on the border collie’s teeth is serious, don’t risk losing the treatment at this time, so as not to hurt the border collie’s gums too much, it is best to let a professional pet doctor deal with it.
