Sounds like normal lab behaviour to me and I would spend my efforts training not dosing with something not proven to be beneficial. Meg was like...
My Newfies were the same...you could do anything with them. Miss them too
I have had 5 dogs and never brushed any of their teeth. We have not had any dental problems either. None of them have been great chewers but Meg...
