Eek Sedating a bully is never a good thing. I think I will stick to marrow bones and dental bones. Tried the finger brush and I am lucky I still have my finger :tongue:

I don't have any problem with Sheldon he loves grooming and having his teeth brushed we always do his teeth when we do ours that way he is a part of the family and he seems to enjoy it because he walks around smiling afterward showing everyone his pretty white teeth LOL

I was trying to be funny but I guess it was an epic fail!! Of course I would not sedate him to brush his teeth!

I've attached a video my husband took of me brushing two bullies' teeth at the same time!!! Yes, it can be done. First, pick a flavored toothpaste. Then squeeze some out on one of your fingers and let your dog taste it. You'll know right away if he does--and if he does, spread it out on a toothbrush and insert the brush into his mouth. Let him chew the brush for a few seconds, and then start brushing his teeth.

Just watch my video. Please let me know if you have any quesitons.
Good luck.

Rocco is pretty good on letting us brush his teeth with his bacon flavored toothpaste. We do it about once a week

I used a toothbrush like that w/Winston, but he bit the brush head off!!! Then I had to chase him down to get it out of his mouth... Wish I had that on video!!! Lol
