bad breath
Recently, Zsa zsa has been plagued by a spate of bad breathe. Must be all the chicken she's been eating.I attribute it to the fact that she hates having her teeth brushed. She nearly bit the baby toothbrush I bought her to bits the last time.
She would just chomp down on the toothbrush and ruin it. Brushing her teeth is a real chore.
What we really needed is a brush with bristles all round it, rather than just on 1 side so that when she bites down, both her upper and lower teeth are cleaned.
Then we had a brainwave!
We just need to buy a baby bottle cleaner! Okay, it's actually nipple cleaner...it just reads/sounds obscene.
Anyway, after some scouting around the supermarket, we found it.
Quite cool rite? wahahaa.
But she wasn't too happy with her new toothbrush. Sometimes, I think she just likes being dirty.
The whole exercise was extremely trying.
At the end, we were both knocked out.
Eh, it's not easy trying to breathe a dog's teeth you know. Especially if the dog doesn't want you to brush her teeth and is convinced that you are really trying to kill/poison/hurt/choke her. :(
Hopefully, it'll get easier next time.
