I decided to switch Stella and Neo back to their previous Merrick foods.\u00c2\u00a0 Stella is finishing up her Grammie’s Pot Pies (a gift from Grandma and Grandpa) so she can re-start Smothered Comfort and Wingalings (the latter she eats with great enthusiasm).\u00c2\u00a0 Grammies Pot Pie worked out best for Neo so he’s back on it while alternating with Hill’s Science Diet Oral Care.<\/p>\n

As a side note, besides brushing their teeth daily along with the use of Petrodex, I don’t know how else to safely resolve the bad breath issues?\u00c2\u00a0 I think it will be nearly impossible to combat since they eat and sleep so much, plus they both gulp their food down without much chewing, which only worsens the matter.\u00c2\u00a0 Below are pics of their toothbrushes (Stella obviously has to use the smaller end).\u00c2\u00a0 I also use separate toothpastes with fluoride that are especially for dogs and cats.<\/p>\n
