recordonline.com - Bucktoothed dog? A rubber ball can help
Intresting. I think the 15 mins. 3 times a day would be the hard part. I'm not sure a dog is going to hold a rubber ball for 15 min. Well, mine wouldn't anyway. Maybe put something yummy on it?

Is there a vetrinary orthodontist near you that you can have do a consultation?

I was thinking rubber bands, I know they've been used on dogs to move teeth.
