3. NEGLECTING ORAL HYGIENE
Many dog owners don’t even look inside the mouths of their dogs, and they don’t even brush it that often. According to vets, not considering the health of your dog’s mouth is a huge mistake because there is always a possibility of them getting a periodontal disease or having bacteria building up in their gums. In fact, there are many dangerous diseases they can develop because of lack of hygiene, and most of that bacteria will be swallowed to their guts when they are eating, making the situation more dangerous. You have to clean your pet’s teeth once or twice a week, at least, with a toothbrush that’s soft and have flexible bristles, a soft cloth, or a piece of gauze. You don’t really need to use toothpaste, but if you have to, then use one that’s specifically made for pets.
