*~* My kids help me ALOT with Midnight & Sunhine.
They do it...WITH PLEASURE.
No nagging...by Nikki !

** What we do:
I will have Kyle or Sara hold Midnight or Sunshine.
I use the, "Lemme See ??" command.

I use WATER first...I have a bowl of filtered water and my doggie toothbrush
(my vet said that I could just buy a baby's size toothbrush from the store..very soft and small.)
I clean the teeth first with water. I also TRY to clen the tongue.
Then, I clean them with the toothpaste that my Vet recommended.
I finish up with WATER again.

*** We try to clean their teeth every weekend. TRY !!

2 person job ??
I have never tried to do it alone...so, I don't know how hard it might be.
