What can i do about my dogs breath??? Man it stinks and i love to cuddle with him but that breath sometimes just knocks me out!

Why don't you just try offering him a chlorophyll treat or a minty chew rope? Do they have those where you live?

 

[monty's mom]

I will definitely find out

I give him greenies now and again that is suppose to help with breath but i have never felt that it actually worked!

Take a look at the folds around his mouth- are they red and sore? The smell might be coming from there (I have to wipe Murray's mouth area with Malaseb weekly and keep it dry, or he has problems with this)

He might be having dental problems- maybe your vet can take a look-

I also have to use Malesab wipes on Rusty or he has problems. Stickers is fine. Also, I try to brush their teeth everyday. That makes a huge difference.

I agree with Maggie's Mommy. Brushing their teeth really helps. You do need to use a toothpaste made for dogs. We use the rubber bristleded finger cot that fits on your finger. Go slowly at first to get them used to this. The toothpaste we purchase at the vets or you can probably find it on line. Bogie and Bubba, ATB, are the first dogs we have owned who did not have doggie bad breath. We never brushed teeth before them, plus they did not have to have their teeth cleaned by the vet. They are sparkling white.
