Dear Duchess Poppy,
The people I live with read that February is Doggie Dental Month, or something like that, and now they keep coming at me with silly sticks with brushes on the end. Do I have to put up with this? Should I let these humans clean my canines?
Questioningly,
Chomper
Dear Chomper,
As you can see from the photograph of moi above, I've trained my retainers to polish my pearly whites twice a day! I started this training the day I arrived here, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Who wants fuzzy teeth???
And, as much as I love my dear veterinarian team, I don't want to visit them too often. Do you have any idea how many presents I could have for the cost of one dental cleaning at the vets? Brushing means more money to spend on travel and jewelry!
I've had my research team post a video (below) for you to review and pass on to your servants.
Yours truly,
Poppy, Duchess of Whitehead
February is National Pet Dental Month
Have your family take 5 minutes to watch this video on why they should brush your teeth and how to do it.
