Brushing Without the Wrestling Match
Brushing your dog's teeth should not feel like a wrestling match. This soft silicone brush slips over your fingertip, so you brush with your own finger and can feel how much pressure you use. It's an easy way to start puppies and dogs who are new to brushing.
Why This Brush Works
-
Fits on Your Finger
The brush slides over your index finger like a cap. You guide it with your own fingertip, so it's easy to reach each tooth.
-
Soft Silicone Bristles
Short, soft silicone bristles sit near the tip and feel gentle along the gums. Add a pea-sized dab of dog toothpaste and you're ready to start.
-
Made for Beginners
It's made for puppies under 10 lbs and dogs who aren't used to a brush yet. Keep the first sessions short and give plenty of praise.
Brush With Your Fingertip
Lift your dog's lip gently and rub the bristles along the teeth in small circles. Because the brush sits on your finger, you can feel each tooth and keep the pressure light. Give the back molars a little extra time.
What People Are Saying
FAQ
Everything You Need to Know
How often should I brush my dog's teeth?
Many owners aim for two or three times a week, and every day if your dog is happy with it. Your vet can tell you what fits your dog's age and teeth.
Can I use my own toothpaste?
No. Human toothpaste can contain fluoride and xylitol, and both are toxic to dogs. Only use a toothpaste made for dogs, such as an enzymatic dog toothpaste.
How do I start brushing a puppy?
Slide the finger brush on and keep the first few sessions short. It's made for puppies under 10 lbs and dogs who aren't used to a brush yet. A puppy who gets used to it early usually stays more relaxed about brushing as an adult.
What if my dog hates having his teeth brushed?
Keep the first sessions short. Let your dog sniff and lick the brush first, then brush a few teeth at a time. Use a dog toothpaste in a flavor your dog likes and give lots of praise. Most dogs settle in after a few tries.
When should I replace the brush?
Swap it out every 3 months, or sooner if the bristles start to wear down.
