Dog Dental Care Without Brushing

[@mystikskye]

When I first got my pomeranian she was 18 months old. I took her to the vet. Vet said according to how bad her teeth was she was 8 yrs old. I started brushing her teeth daily and used coconut oil. I took pics of her teeth to monitor her progress. There was so much improvement. I just recently noticed my 7 yr old male Pom is starting to get the tarter and plaque on his teeth too so now I have to come up with a game plan for HIM. He’s not as cooperative in getting his mouth messed with so I think this is gonna be fun, NOT! Btw I knew my girl was actually 18 months and not 8 yrs cuz I had her paperwork.

[@alexandrakennedy8078]

That really something how your Vet thought your Pom was 8 yrs by her teeth when she was really only 18 months. I wish I'd know this info years ago for my little rescue dogs. They had bad teeth and were impossible to let me clean their teeth. It was like they thought I was going to torture them or something.

[@mystikskye]

@@alexandrakennedy8078 tbh I think my Willow was kept in a cage all her life and just neglected. When I first got her her paws were all splayed out like she had been in a cage all that time. Not too long after I got her she started having seizures and I’m sure they didn’t just start when I got her. So either she was so neglected that the owner never saw the seizures or she knew about them and that’s why she decided to get rid of her. I’ll never know but she’s in safe hands now. When she came to me she was shaved down to bare skin and when I asked the lady why she did that, cuz everyone knows you don’t shave Poms like that, she told me she didn’t like cleaning up all the fur she shedded a few times a year. Poms SHED! If you don’t want a dog that has all that fur and sheds get a freaking chihuahua! Can you tell I’m STILL pissed even after 2 yrs?? Willow is the sweetest dog ever, despite where she came from.

[@dianasimplifies]

​@@mystikskye did you use a pet toothbrush or just your finger with the coconut oil? Thank you!!!

[@mystikskye]

@@dianasimplifies I used a toothbrush and sometimes used a rechargeable sonic toothbrush. I actually just bought a new one the other day to use on my boy. Luckily I’ve never had a problem using any kind of device like that on my dogs. I use a dremel for their nails and the only thing I have to watch out for with that is sometimes I get the fur on their paws twisted up in it but even doing that every so often doesn’t make them afraid of me using it! If you think your dog wouldn’t like the toothbrush then you could use your finger or even a qtip.

[@poppierosepoppiestoys6127]

You are the most amazing vet I’ve come across. I live in Australia, and I’m a pensioner, the money we get on the pension really doesn’t allow for you to take your dog to get vet care. Our Vets are so money orientated they won’t let you pay the bill off. So your animal suffers. I know of people that have made the choice to surrender their animal to be re- homed just so they can get medical treatment. Then they become lonely and depressed because of their lose. It is so dame sad. By you doing this, you are giving people the opportunity to administer good health treatment at a low cost to the owner. So thank you for your expertise.

[@Ann-bm5qg]

Same here in England. I think it’s unfair vets do not let customers pay in instalments. I found a pet insurance that is affordable although the issue is the access charge that has to be paid and it’s usually around £100.

The plaque off worked for my dog with the most plaque, but results showed around six months while eating dental sticks. What really helps is chewing. My other dog is not a chewer so I’ve been mixing in some kibble in his food. He plays with his dental sticks and ignores biscuits/treats. My youngest dog had some plaque build up and it went away within the first week. She loves to chew and eats any treats (including dental) without a second thought.

Omg thank you! Nice to see an actual vet even have issues. Too many talk of brushing the dog's teeth, but even if raised with mouths being touched, and trained to it, some just cannot stand it. And fight the teeth brushing. They fight the care. More so when the dogs age. They get crankyyyy. Lol

[@dianasimplifies]

My vet told me he doesn't brush his dogs teeth. He just takes them in and does dentals on them. Now he's in with a vet demanding a bunch of vaccines prior to surgery so I'm having to find other alternatives which is prob good bc the dentals are kind of short lived for my dog. His breath is awful. Maybe some of these tips will help.

[@billiehicks1864]

​@@dianasimplifiesmost medical "professionals" are indoctrinated fools and should never be trusted!Everything I've tried from vet recommendations never truly helped my dog and often made things worse! My dog is 13 and exceptionally healthy still only because I stopped trusting my vets and started being my own naturalist vet!Medical Mal practice is the 3rd LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH IN AMERICA! Also if covid didn't teach people to be skeptical then you definitely shouldn't trust any kind of medical advice or honestly any advice from people who can't see what's right in front of their face! Don't give your dogs or yourself and vaccines I stopped all of them since he was about 6 or 7 and he's been far healthier than everyone else I know who does vaccinate! If you do not be clear with your vets or for humans aswell and explicitly state NO VACCINES then they will automatically give them so be proactive and make sure they know you do not give permission for them and object to them!Feed yoyr pets once a day with high quality species specific food and only use a little kibble that is also high quality and non GMO I'd recommend gentle giants if you still want to feed kibble or need to to help transition them to an improved diet.

I keep a pure silver dollar in my dogs water bowl. I have seen a noticeable degree of less tartar on all the dogs teeth. Vet even noticed the difference. It is slowly but surely removing tartar and their breath is fresher too and teeth look whiter. Poms, mini poodles, Pom mixes. I use colloidial silver gum and skin infections works great.

this video was gold for me. I have a rescue who had a very bad first 3 yrs of her life, and when I got her, she did have one teeth cleaning under anesthesia. She developed a stage IV heart murmuur and mitral valve issue the next year, so unfortunately she cannot go under anesthesia for cleaning. Compared to Tula, I cannot hardly even see her teeth; that is how hard it is for me to get into her mouth. Ive tried brushing with the finger brushes, a small brush, you name it but it is like wrestling an alligator each time I brush. I am going to try these remedies of which I have most of them at the moment. Cheap alternatives as well. Thank you so much for this.

Awesome, video! I'd also like to advocate for old fashioned green beans (string beans, French beans). They can be a 1 tbsp topper to raw or kibble diets and they add fiber to the diet and they melt plaque. It works on both my dogs, who hate vegetables but love green beans. I used the unsalted canned or I buy fresh or frozen and boil till cooked. then let cool and add to meals. (I don't feed pets raw vegetables due to gas and bloating.)

Studies: about green tea studies, those who drink a lot of green tea also have a higher percentage of people who don't eat sweets, junk food, lots of vegetarians and other "granola" types a a higher than normal percentage in the mix.

Also several have commented that once the vets sedate them to “clean/ scale ie scrape their teeth” it’s like they scrape off the protective coating and then they need regular cleanings. More Mula of course

Raw bones will clean even bad tarter buildup if you can get an older dog to chew. May take a few times since the teeth/gums may be sensitive. If they chew and clean up some of the tarter, give them a few days and more bone and they will progress to more teeth.

[@voiceofreason7856]

Actually, two of my four Rough Collies I've had would let the vet gently scale their teeth to rid them of the tarter. They'd just literally sit there very quietly for him, and they were a brother and sister from the same litter. He said NO other dogs had EVER let him do that !

About 6 months ago we took a chance and had the vet clean them because tartar was so bad, but won’t chance that again. I’m hoping she will let me put my finger in her mouth, but doubt it.

@@baklash1762 it is very easy, you just sprinkle it on the food. Since you just got them cleaned, this should help prevent build up for the rest of her life!

Like saltines: if you eat them dry and then the difference if you put cheese or butter on them. Hahaha, best analagy I have! Believe me with all mine I do not have time for brushing.

I've seen noticable results from the Bark bright sticks and gel in my retired greyhounds, which have notoriously bad teeth.

generic kelp powder works just as good. but yes i think the iodine content limits the amount you can give. i accidentally imbalanced my dog's diet with too much iodine with a fish head bone broth that I made and during that time his raw meaty bone scraped off A LOT of stubborn plaque. i correct the iodine dosage though after i found out

What about rubbing manuka honey on gums instead of propolis?

Tula is obedient. My dogs would have jumped down and run off.

I love the videos, I need help trying to figure out what to give to my German shepherd who always has yeast infections in his ears HELP PLEASE

[@sandraolsen6596]

I also would like to know the answer about the yeast infections in the dogs ears to please Dr, Jones. I know you mentioned if I recall it right that it could be some kind of allergies. FOOD or surroundings, lots of things to try and sort out. I have stopped feeding them food that has any peas or pea powder in there food they 3 different breeds of dogs have now less shaking of their heads and less excessive licking them selves. But I do feel that they still have some issues still with there ears and dirt, debris moist in the ears. I truly feel stopping any form of pea bi products has help. Can you suggest any other thought about the ear issues. Please. Thank you very much for your time and support and listening very appreciated. 😊🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🤟👀💖🤟👄💋🐶 BYE FOR NOW😊
