Aquadent?

Has anyone came across this for their little pooch? I only heard of it today and at first thought it sounded like a good idea, but then I read that it contains Xylitol - confused.

I would check the ingredients very carefully. It it does contain xylitol it is not good for dogs. It is scary that we start seeing the deadly ingredients in food not realizing they are there. I know Xylitol is supposedly safe for humans, but if it crashes blood sugar in dogs do we really know what it does for our bodies.

Yeah the aquadent is for dogs though to put in their water to help their teeth, that's what was confusing as to why they would have xylitol in it as it can be toxic to dogs. He won't be having any of it that's for sure.

I have heard of this as well. But didnt like the ingredients. I just brush their teeth and use the paste from the vets office.

Yeah, it was a girl I know who has a baby shihtzhu and she told me she was going to get it when he was old enough for him, that's what made me read into it. Hopefully she stays clear now.
