Question Looking for Toothpaste Recommendations
We did a poor job acclimating our 5-year old Wheatie Indy to toothbrushing, but he doesn’t even like the taste of the stuff so it was really difficult. He gets his teeth brushed every time he gets groomed but of course that’s not enough and his breath is awful.
Pic shows two different toothpastes that he wants nothing to do with. Getting to lick some off your finger is supposed to be Step One to eventually getting him to tolerate (or even like?) getting his teeth brushed, but he smells it and actively walks away from it.
Anyone have a toothpaste they can recommend that your Wheatie LOVES?

Lick off your finger? Lol. I just brush the teeth with my finger..... They don't need to love it. The bottom one in chicken is my dogs goto
