Over the past few years I have accumulated quite a list of pet blogs that I subscribe to. They come in all shapes, sizes, and topics. Recently, I stumbled on this one called YouDidWhatWithYourWeiner. The title alone made me giggle; so I had to read more! Wouldn't you? One of her recent articles, entitled I Don't Brush My Dog's Teeth was one I completely related to. Not all dogs are delighted with brushes and paste, even if they do taste like liver. She mentioned that giving your dog a high-protein, grain-free kibble can cause teeth to worsen. I had no idea! I'm going to do some research this week. Have any of you heard this? What do you think?
