" Over 300 dogs and their owners attempted to set a new world record for the greatest number of canines having their teeth brushed at the same time. According to Yahoo, exactly 312 owners on Hong Kong Island scrubbed their animals&amp;#039; teeth for three minutes as they sought to set a new Guinness World Record in the category &amp;#039;most people brushing dogs&amp;#039; teeth simultaneously&amp;#039;.  The record attempt was held to promote an awareness of dental hygiene among dog owners, as well as raising money for a local dog home. Hilda Wong from real estate firm The Link, which organised the event, told global news agency AFP: &amp;quot;A lot of people take care of their dogs&amp;#039; hair and their diet but not so much their teeth. &amp;quot;Brushing teeth is crucial for dogs, it&amp;#039;s just like brushing their hair. You don&amp;#039;t have to do it every day, but it&amp;#039;s good to do it once a week because they eat and chew.&amp;quot; Wong stated that it would take three or four months before they will find out if they have beaten the world record.
