Good old Molly. She’s a great dog. I mean, she is HUGE and crazy and still acts like a puppy, but really, she is a pretty cool dog. We love her. Buuuuut, we don’t love her enough to brush her teeth! Sorry Molly. I have a hard enough time getting the Bird and the Bean to brush their teeth every day. (Occasionally, I even forget to brush my own! Gross. Shhhh.) So, yeah, there’s no way I am brushing my dog’s teeth.
I know our vet has told us that brushing dog’s teeth keeps mouths clean and bodies healthy. Even so, it’s just not happening. So, I was pretty excited to have Molly try out the new Milk-Bone Brushing Chews. I was sent some to check out.
“Tastes like a treat, cleans like a toothbrush!” Sweet. I didn’t try them, so I’m not sure if they really taste like a treat…..but Molly loves them. 😉
They are designed with a 75 degree twist that helps the brushing nubs reach down the gum line, so they can clean even the hard to reach back teeth.
When fed daily, Milk–Bone® Brushing Chews are clinically proven to be as effective as brushing your dog’s teeth twice per week based on the reduction of tartar build-up and bad breath! And they are so effective that they have earned the trusted Veterinary Oral Health Council’s Seal of Acceptance, similar to the American Dental Association (ADA) seal seen on human dental products.
So, that makes me feel even better about NOT brushing my dog’s teeth!
Do you want to try them out? (I guess I should say, “Does your dog want to try them out!”) Great! Milk-Bone is generously letting me give Milk-Bone Brushing Chews AND a 25 dollar VISA Giftcard away to a lucky reader!

Rascal is pretty good at letting me brush his teeth. I’ve been doing it since he was a puppy. He’s now 2 so he is ueed to it. Although these milbone brushings would be an extra help in keeping his teeth and gums in good shape.

Yes, I have in the past but my dog hates it and makes it very difficult to do.
