Highlighted Reviews

β€” Charlotte

"I love the soft grips as it makes it easier to hold on to, she's still a little wiggly with the tooth brushing."

β€” Ratterriermom

"Luckily managed to get the red end piece from one dog when it fell off and was being careful with the other, but he swallowed it. Great concept but made horribly."

Bottom Line

While the toothbrush has positive feedback for its effectiveness, potential buyers should consider the sizing and durability concerns before purchasing. Its suitability depends on your pet's size and bite strength.
