If your boxer is not used to having his teeth brushed, try placing a small amount of the toothpaste on a toothbrush and let your boxer hold it in his mouth for a few minutes. This will help him get used to the feel of the brush in his mouth. Maybe for the first few days of trying you don’t actually do any brushing, but it will still be helping your boxer to get used to being handled and having the mouth touched and examined.
