How to brush the teeth of the Icelandic Sheepdog? During the breeding process, we should insist on brushing the teeth of the Icelandic Sheepdog every week from the puppy stage. However, what method should be used to make the Icelandic Sheepdog brush its teeth obediently?

When you first brush your Icelandic Sheepdog’s teeth, he may have a rebellious mentality and dislike or even avoid the task of brushing his teeth. Therefore, when dogs are young, owners can often try to gently rub small gauze on their teeth so that they can slowly get used to the feeling of brushing their teeth. Over time, the Icelandic Sheepdog slowly accepted the task of brushing its teeth, then replaced the gauze with a toothbrush, and used professional pet toothpaste to brush the dog's teeth.

When formally brushing teeth, you should first calm the Icelandic Sheepdog's emotions, then gently open its mouth, inject an appropriate amount of water or 1% salt water to rinse, and then use your hands to brush the dog's teeth. Apply a layer of toothpaste and rub gently with your toothbrush. The friction method is based on a 45-degree angle, and then continuously grind back and forth in the gap between the teeth and gums to remove the impurities. After cleaning the entire tooth, rinse it with clean water.
