“Mom, we need to brush Zoey’s teeth. Her breath stinks.” Alyssa has said this several times. I find this a bit ironic from a girl who starts her day with morning breath so strong it will bring a tear to your eye.
Tim stopped by the Petco to pick up a dog training device that emits ultrasonic sounds that dogs find annoying. It is like fingernails on a chalkboard to us humans. It’s his attempt to break Zoey from barking at him EVERY time he walks… into the house, by the front door, in the back yard, down the stairs, or anywhere the dog is. Remembering Alyssa’s comment about Zoey’s teeth, he also grabs a package of DoggieDents, which are pre-pasted disposable toothbrushes for dogs.
The kids are thrilled that they each will get a turn brushing the dog’s teeth. Zoey’s a good dog. She takes it all in stride. She lets me hold her mouth open while the giggling kids scrub her canine choppers.
Why Alyssa was so adamant about brushing the dog’s teeth I’ll never know. I just hope it makes her brush her own teeth more especially before she wants to have an in-depth conversation first thing in the morning.
