Okay, first understand the causes of bad breath in dogs. Dental problems, stomach or digestive problems and poor quality foods just to name three things. The first thing you should do is take the dog to a vet for a check up to make sure her bad breath is not a health or dental problem. Dental problems left untreated will cause other health problems, including heart problems. If her health and teeth are fine try a premium quality dog food. She should be eating that anyway for her healths sake. California Natural, Solid Gold, Innova, Merrick and Wellness are a few of the best ones. check out http://www.premiumfoodsonline.com/ Good luck
u cant itz impossilbe u can try dog breath mints thatz wat my momz frend did
WELL YOU CAN GIVE HIM/HER A DOG TREAT THAT HAS DENTAL HEALTH AND THAT STUFF ALWAYS HAVE BAD BREATH RELIEFS OR YOU CAN ASK A DOG DOCTER
Brush his teeth w/baking soda and give him milk bones…..
Don’t sniff
It is probably tartar build up on the teeth from eating food that sticks to the gums and teeth. Have her eat crunchy food only for a couple of weeks and see if that helps. Soft dog food from cans smells from the can anyway. Crunchy food is like a tooth brush.
They have chew toys for that. They also have dog breath mints but I don’t think they smell good. If she is 8 or older you may have to have them cleaned and examined to make sure there is no decay. Sometimes they have to pull some, but not often.
it might be the type of food that u feed her. try changing her diet, unless it was food recomended by a vet. my dog is little, and he doesnt have bad breath, so it might depend on the size, too
Try ordering Denticic??? online at KV Vets.com use it daily. You can simply squeeze a bit onto the back teeth on each side or brush the teeth with a dog toothbrush or gloves (rubber) made especially for that purpose.
there is a new product out on the market.. that works wonders it is a seaweed based product called "ProDen’s Plaque Off." Make sure it is the ProDen brand the others don’t work as well. You put it on the food once daily..
They actually have dog mints, you can get them at pet stores they are called Yip Yaps. Or you could give her greenies they helped my dogs breath.
give her a dental bone…it will take a few bones to help but that is what helped with mine
buy treats called Dental Breath Mints
