I came across a number of articles denouncing the use of human toothpaste for dogs.
That leads me to think that this is a problem. It seems that humans are using minty toothpastes, intended for hjmans, to try and combat doggie bad breath. It is a bad idea and it could prove fatal.

I think we should take this seriously. Only use a special dog toothpaste on your dog. Clearly human toothpaste is not safe for them. I would think a special dog toothbrush would be good too. It is better to be safe and not take a chance on your dog's health.
