Jeager always struggled with "false type" chews, always made his tummy bad. i tried Plaque off, and after a while you could tell it was working. i kept him on it till the last, and i would recommend it to anybody. ( many variations in pricing though!) i didnt realise until much later, that it worked from the inside out.. instead of breaking down the Plaque from the outside. please read about it on the internet first. plus make sure it is made by MOLAR Ltd. i knew people who got a, CHEAP IMMITATION) and said "It was useless!!" ( funny that!!)

Raw meaty bones here. I was horrified to see that Spencers teeth were stained when I got him. They weren't badly stained but he was 10 months old and it was already noticeable! They're nice and white now

Plaque Off is amazing stuff. I gave it to my old shar-pei for a few weeks as you couldn't see her fangs for horrible plaques of brown tartar. I thought it wasn't working, her teeth would be rotten underneath. Then one day I had a look, put my thumbnail gently up near the fang's gum and had a pick. A beautiful shiny white fang emerged as a huge swathe of limescale like plaque came off. I took her to the vet to have them scaled fearing removals as I could only remove so much myself. Vet looked in her mouth and pinged 90% of the remaining plaque off her fangs and molars. with just his thumbnail. He was amazed at how easy it came off and said her teeth were in great condition under all that build up.

And yes, accept no imitations and shop around online for it.

I use a toothbrush and plain water for a minute or so daily, it's good handling practise too imo.
