It's taken time. Neither of my hounds likes the feeling, but if you are consistent and go slow (when they're sleepy and well fed!) you can train them to accept the odd vibrating sensation the scaler makes when you hit tartar. I reward them well for each time they let me clean a tooth, and I only do one. Then I do another in a couple of days and reward them well again. They've gotten to the point where they have very little anxiety and are more anxious to know which treat they're getting. All in all, a worthwhile few bucks!!
So I decided to give this product a shot (just me and Koda, no additional help) and it does the job fantastically!!! Leaves the teeth near pristine.
I will say, your dog has to really really trust you in order to use the scaler to remove tartar. One tooth takes about 10-15 minutes to clean and I'm only doing one a day because even though Koda is so good and still and let's me clean, I can tell it's stressful for him.
