Good for
The finger-brush stage of a new routine, puppies, small dogs and owners who want to feel where they are brushing.
Skip it if
Large dogs once the routine is established (a long-handled toothbrush reaches the back teeth better), or dogs likely to bite down on fingers.
Our take
On this page
Our verdict
Beaphar's Finger Toothbrush fits PDSA's third step, between rubbing the gums with a cloth and using a full toothbrush. The soft silicone bristles and finger fit make it easy to feel where you are working, which helps with a nervous dog. Both the listing and Beaphar's page say to replace it after three months or sooner if it looks worn, so a 2-pack covers about six months. The variant trap is pack size: Beaphar sells finger brushes singly and in packs, and this link is the 2-brush pack.
When to move on
For large dogs, PDSA's final step is a dog toothbrush, whose longer handle reaches the back molars more easily. Keep the finger brush for quick touch-ups or for small breeds. Do not let your dog chew it, and stop if your dog clamps down; go back to shorter sessions.
FAQ
Which toothpaste should I use with it?
Any toothpaste made for pets. Never human toothpaste.
How do I clean it?
Wash it with clean water after use and let it dry completely before the next session, as the listing advises.
