You can buy doggie toothbrushes and doogy toothpaste at pet stores. Bosco and Lola both love the taste of theirs so they don't mind tooth-brushing time.
The main thing to remember is to try to make it pleasant. First put toothpaste on a toothbrush (or on your finger) and let him just lick it off. Then try to brush the front teeth only. Work up to doing the back teeth.
Bosco's trainer said that dog toothpaste has some kind of enzyme in it that really just requires the toothpaste to touch the tooth and that is it - you don't need to necessarily scrub them the way you do your own. :?:
