Aside from brushing, offer dental toys to your dog and feed crunchy biscuits, which help to minimize plaque. Rope toys have the added benefit of acting like floss as the dog chews. At your adult dog’s yearly check-ups, the vet will likely perform a thorough tooth scraping as well as a complete check for any problems. Proper care of your dog’s teeth will ensure that you will enjoy your dog’s smile for many years to come. The next time your dog goes to give you a hello kiss, you’ll be glad you spent the time caring for his teeth.

ID FOR YOUR BORZOI

You love your Borzoi and want to keep him safe. Of course you take every precaution to prevent his escaping from the yard or becoming lost or stolen. You have a sturdy high fence and you always keep your dog on lead when out and about in public places. If your dog is not properly identified, however, you are overlooking a major aspect of his safety. We hope to never be in a situation where our dog is missing, but we should practice prevention in the unfortunate case that this happens; identification greatly increases the chances of your dog’s being returned to you.

There are several ways to identify your dog. First, the traditional dog tag should be a staple in your dog’s wardrobe, attached to his everyday collar. Tags can be made of sturdy plastic and various metals and should include your contact information so that a person who finds the dog can get in touch with you right away to arrange his return. Many people today enjoy the wide range of decorative tags available, so have fun and create a tag to match your dog’s personality. Of course, it is important that the tag stays on the collar, so have a secure “O” ring attachment; you also can explore the type of tag that slides right onto the collar.

In addition to the ID tag, which every dog should wear even if identified by another method, two other forms of identification have become popular: microchipping and tattooing. In microchipping, a tiny scannable chip is painlessly inserted under the dog’s skin. The number is registered to you so that, if your lost dog turns up at a clinic or retrieve your contact information.
