Cleaning your dog's teeth is no easy feat. It's hard enough to get them to sit still, let alone open their mouths wide enough to brush their teeth properly. And even if you do manage to get the job done, it's nearly impossible to tell if you're doing it right.

Are you using the right toothbrush? Are you brushing for long enough? Are you getting all of the plaque and tartar off? It's enough to make any dog owner throw in the towel.

If you're like most dog owners, you know that brushing your puppy's teeth is important – but it can be easier said than done. There are tons of products out there to help, but it can be hard to find one that's effective and that you can use consistently. No one wants that dreaded vet bill for a professional clean ($$$$).

One great way to supplement your dog's dental care is with DIY bone broth carrots.

You read that right, folks! TikTok user Hillary, who runs the @biggirlphyllis page where she shares care tips that she tries on her dog Phyllis, recommended making your own doggie dental sticks.

'If you struggle brushing your dog’s teeth, try this little hack,' she wrote in the caption of her video.

Hillary also claimed that the recipe helps prevent plaque buildup and is a beneficial way to include more veggies in your furry friend's diet.

So, how do you prepare this treat?

To start, simply mix some washed carrots with water and bone broth, and let them soak for an hour or two.

Next, strain the carrots and place them in the freezer until it's frozen.

Once the treat is frozen, you can give it to your pup to enjoy!

These DIY dental sticks are a healthy and refreshing treat for your dogs that will help keep their teeth clean.

The tip has captured the attention of thousands of TikTok users, with many praising Hillary for her budget-friendly trick.

One user wrote: 'This is so much better than commercial dental sticks! Going to give it a try!'

'Yessss my dogs love carrots and it keeps their teeth clean and breath fresher than anything else,' another agreed.

Others claimed that their dogs are picky eaters and they might not take a bite of this treat.

One person said: 'I love this but he won’t eat it lol.'

'Watching this while having the pickiest dog ever,' another shared.

Hillary replied to these comments, suggesting to try other veggies if their dogs do not like carrots.

'You may try frozen pumpkin slices, apples - veggies that won’t stick to your pup’s teeth and will help with gently scraping that plaque off,' she advised.

Some took the opportunity to offer some advice for owners who are feeding carrots to their dogs for the first time.

'Start with a small piece! One of my dogs had EXPLOSIVE diarrhea in the middle of the night after a big frozen carrot,' one person suggested. This goes for any new food you’re introducing into their diet.

Just like us, our dogs need to have their teeth brushed regularly to prevent gum disease, tooth decay, and other oral health problems.

So, next time you're looking for a quick and easy way to help care for your dog's teeth, try this DIY bone broth carrot recipe - your pup will thank you for it!
