Teeth

We have been brushing Diva's teeth since she was a pup, ie using a rubber tooth clener and dog toothpaste, and lately a kids size tootbrush. She also has toys and bones to chew on and the occasional dental stick but have noticed a brown spot on one of her back teeth recently so not sure we are doing the right thing.
What do you use for your dog's teeth?

Same here. When we showed him I used to just use a bit of doggie tooth powder & a kiddies brush, but that was just to make em shine a bit!

Never brushed any of my dogs teeth! My old boy is 15 now and his teeth are a little bit brown, but nothing too bad considering his age! They have bones and fish skin treats to help their teeth!
