You are absolutely right! I had a four-pound Yorkie, wonderful dog. Sadly, she died early because I didn't pay enough attention to her teeth. Her gums became inflamed, and bacteria entered her bloodstream, and her vital organs shut down. It happened quickly and it was too late to save her. It happened 20 years ago, and I still feel guilty. Now I'm very conscious of doggie dental needs.
