Pets, cats, and dogs only live until they're 20. AND pets DO have lots of problems with dental health. What is with all these people questioning flossing here? Floss your damn teeth. Worst that can happen is the poor guy you work with doesn't have to smell the decomposing food coming out of your mouth. JFC

We’ve changed pet food just like we’ve changed our own food. Notice how pets and animals that eat human food (like raccoons) are all getting fat together.
Looking at modern dog dental hygiene to learn about how wild animals’ teeth work is as silly as looking at our dental hygiene to see how a hunter gatherer’s teeth work.
