February is National Pet Dental Health Month, so it seems like a good time to take a closer look at teeth cleaning. As we wrote before, dental problems are the most prevalent health issue for Greyhounds. No matter how much at-home dental care you provide for your Greyhound, tartar will still build up over time on your dog’s teeth, just like with our teeth. We may be diligent in brushing our teeth, but we still need a dentist to clean our teeth periodically. The same is true for dogs.
In honor of National Pet Dental Health Month (every February), we are going to be looking at Greyhounds and their teeth. Dental issues are the prevailing health problem facing pet Greyhounds. According to the University of Bristol, in collaboration with the Royal Veterinary College RVC, 39% of Greyhounds suffer from dental problems. This percentage is alarmingly higher than for any other dog breed.
