Hello and thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. t/d diet, dentisticks and other dental care treats have minimal beneficial effect if any. Cleaning teeth daily and regular dental checks work much better. Please, stick to that, as dental care diets are in my opinion, not worth the money.

Virbac also makes a great range of CET Enzymatic toothpastes that help to "dissolve" plaque and prevent plaque build up. https://us.virbac.com/product/dental/cet-enzymatic-toothpaste-for-dogs-and-cats These are widely available on the internet and though veterinarians and pet stores.

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Sasha. Good on you for caring about her dental health! The best thing I can recommend is daily brushing with a canine toothbrush and canine toothpaste. I love the CET brand of dental products for dogs, they are excellent. Chew sticks are ok, and you can use something like Dentasticks as a daily treat, but they won't have as good effects as brushing. I hope this helps!

HI, thanks for using Petcoach! I am sorry Ziggy is sick! Sadly there isn't a perfect treat to keep a dogs teeth clean. Veterinary dentists recommend brushing their teeth AT LEAST three times per week. Anything less isn't doing anything. If Ziggy has a lot of tartar build up already then it is best to have an anesthetic (put under) dental to have his teeth cleaned, X-rayed and extracted if infected. Then brushing his teeth 3 or more times per week will hopefully keep the tartar away. Below is a link to the Veterinary Oral Health Councils recommend products. I hope this helps and good luck! http://www.vohc.org/VOHCAcceptedProductsTable_Dogs.pdf

Congrats on your new adoption! Brushing his teeth daily with a toothpaste designed specifically for dogs is the best way to keep their teeth and gums healthy. You can purchase this toothpaste at your vet or at a pet store. Chews can also be used , they just aren't an effective substitute for brushing. I would enroll chino in a dog training class to work on basic obedience, socialization and confidence as soon as you can.
