Hi there,
We were successful with our first foster girl, Morgan - she was adopted by a wonderful family this past weekend. We promptly accepted our new foster girl Macy, but this poor baby has the worst teeth... She's a very petite Pyr and she's obviously used her teeth to get out of a cage, crate, whatever in the past. Her bottom teeth are worn down to the gums and her lower canines are badly worn in grooves on both sides and decayed. It doesn't seem to bother her, but her breath is just noxious :( . I have brushes for all the other dogs and picked up one that attaches to my finger for brushing Macy's - it just looks gentler but I'm afraid I'll hurt her if I even try.
I don't know what advice I'm looking for, I guess I'm just wondering if anybody's experienced this sort of thing before and if so, what have you done for it? Breezely came to us from Rescue with gorgeous teeth....
TIA,
Kelli

The estimate is 3-4 years. I forgot to mention, that's Breezely in my picture. Note his beautiful teeth...
