DENTIST RECOMMENDED

How challenging can it be to brush a dog’s teeth? Even a dentist and dental hygienist for humans had trouble! So they invented the Chewmate Treatbrush from ALLNATT INNOVATIONS. The bone-shaped natural rubber toy brushes and cleans dog teeth, gums and tongue as they chew, helping to prevent dental disease. Floss slots and rubber bristles get the job done, with the ability to insert a dental chew, bully stick or other treat to encourage chewing. In extra-small/small and medium/large. POP, training and incentives available.
