Shadow is not a big fan of brushing but I am trying to get him used to it since he is hopefully going to get a cleaning done soon! The cleaning is proving to be another problem but his teeth are a mess.
I have been using Vet's Best which apparently contains Neem Oil. I have been using it faithfully for a couple weeks and just read yesterday how bad it is for dogs to ingest.

Ah, that is really cute! That's Ducky with his visiting sister(not Pixel)? Ducky's perfect hair looks a little wild!
I love to watch these little characters in action.

Yes, that's sister Luna on top... And yes, Ducky has been given a run for his money! LOL!

For those who actually brush, does your dog actually open their mouth up so you can see what you are doing?
Or are you blindly trying to get everything?
We start out with Kiki sitting in front of me. She gets excited once I put some toothpaste on the toothbrush. I let her have a couple of licks. She pretty much licks nonstop, so I have to just keep brushing and angle the toothbrush so it's brushing her teeth and not just her tongue. Sometimes I put her in my lap and flip her onto her back so I can get to the back teeth better. She's pretty good about the whole thing, but no, she doesn't just hold her jaws open. That said, she behaves the same way with the toddler toothbrush. I just prefer having a handle.
