Brushing teeth is not the instinct of the Shiba Inu, so it is normal for the dog to have a resistance reaction, but as long as the owner insists on doing it, it will also get a good improvement. In the early stage, the owner can use a gauze strip dipped in a little saline to wrap it around his index finger, and wipe the dog's gums and gaps between teeth. Be careful not to damage the dog's gums. Wait until the dog gets used to being touched, and then replace the normal saline with pet toothpaste. Slowly, until the Shiba Inu no longer rejects toothpaste, you can start to replace it with a toothbrush and increase the frequency of brushing. Of course, there are still some dogs who can't accept it anyway, and the owner can also use chewing toys instead of brushing their teeth.

Benefits of brushing teeth for Shiba Inu dogs:

1. Fresh breath. Dogs need to eat a lot of food every day, and there will be food residues in the teeth every time. Brushing the dog's teeth can remove the food residues in the mouth, keep the mouth breath fresh, and solve the problem of bad breath.

2. Brushing teeth can prevent dental calculus.

3. If the owner insists on brushing the dog's teeth, it can also effectively reduce the occurrence of periodontal disease.
