3.2 Sandpaper

If you are using plastic discs, you need to maintain them. Keep them
clean, since dirt on a spinning disc acts just like sandpaper on your
dog's teeth. The dishwasher is a great place to clean discs! Also, the
disc should be kept smooth. As a disc is used, it develops cuts and
sharp dings that can cut your dog's mouth. Rather than simply throw
them out, try sanding them:

Flexible Sanding Block

This tool can be found at any hardware store. It is a foam block that
is covered with sandpaper, and easily conforms to the shape of a disc.
It is better than regular sandpaper since it is not affected as much
by water ( or dog slobber! )

Plumber's "Cloth"

This is 'sandpaper' for copper and pvc pipe. It comes in a roll of 1
inch wide "cloth" and can be easily torn into small pieces and used as
needed. Since it is designed for plumber's, it is nearly impervious to
water and slobber.
