Hi,
I use the CET chews with the hextra added (not sure of the spelling). Anyway, Amazon,
https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2/157-2494300-5950164?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=cet+dog+chews CHEWY.COM, entirely pets.com, etc. sells them online and most online pet stores too. Also, the more you buy on some websites, the cheaper they are JMO, but I never thought they did much for my small puggle. Having 3 dogs, and 40 years of rescues, I think it depends on the dog. Smaller dogs seem to lose their teeth more so than bigger dogs.
As for the electric toothbrush,, I bought a battery operated childrens brush and I got my dogs used to it by turning it on and running the end of it along their back. NOT the brush, lol. Anyway, after awhile they adapted to the toothbrush.
The problem I have is that they all tend to eat the toothpaste before I can get it to the teeth. Also I have tried many different types of manual toothbrushes and same results.
