According to Snopes this is not true.

I understand that Swiffer has an ingredient similar to antifreeze and therefore is poisonous to dogs. (Obviously the wet ones and/or the spray)
Just in. TFH Publications, Inc./Nylabone Products, of Neptune, NJ is recalling one lot of its 1.69 oz. package of the Puppy Starter Kit dog chews, because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. http://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm444560.htm
I have never seen this group before! What a wealth of information. Thank you!
I just found this on my FB page. I use straw instead of mulch but for those of you who use mulch in your flower beds, this type can harm (or kill) your baby!

Lynette, I am currently giving this one a try:

I just started giving it to Tara and my cat so I don't have any feedback for you yet but it has gotten good reviews on Amazon. It is in a powder form and is sprinkled onto their food. It must taste fairly good to them because Amber my cat who is extremely finicky eats it with no complaints! I am pretty sure than neither of them would be happy about having something sprayed into their mouths though so you might consider that as well.
I think this might not be the best place for this since it's really a health/medical discussion. Tartar is of course a health danger though. But about a week ago or so I started using a gel on Calla because her tartar was building up and her breath--ugh. It's called PetzLife, there is a spray also. I bought it quite a while ago but I never used it. I am pleasantly surprised that it seems to be working . The tartar is decreasing and her breath is much improved.
I"ve seen commercials about this spray that helps with plaque on dogs teeth. Has anyone used it or knows anything about it? I haven't asked the vet yet...
