Bad breath

Bella had a full dental cleaning 2 weeks ago but her breath is terrible. I tried brushing her teeth but that didn't help. Any suggestions? TIA!Chat Icon

Did they recommend pulling any of her teeth? Maybe some are starting to decay.

Give her some biscuits. That may help.

Re: Bad breath

Gosh JJs breath is kicking too!! He hasn't had a full cleaning yet though, he'll get that next month at his yearly appointment.

I brush his teeth and it doesn't help and neither does biscuits. Maybe some dogs just have nasty breath Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Bad breath

Is her face dirty? I know that sounds like a dumb question, but in addition to the previous recommendations. I notice that Fascinus's breath smells more if he is licking his tear stains..

Just a thought.

Hope Bella is OKChat Icon Chat Icon

What kind of dog is Bella? If she has wrinkles on her face like a Pug try cleaning them.
For biscuts I recommend Old Mother Hubbard - Give Me a Kiss biscuts- they freshen breath.

This works great too:

Didn't work for Katie though becauase she is a crazy chewer and she finished it in an hour.

Re: Bad breath

One of my dog's teeth fell out recently...the vet thinks he chewed on something the wrong way - but DH & I noticed now that his breath doesn't smell. We think he had tooth decay and now that the tooth is no longer there, neither is the smell.

You are probably right. The smell from tooth decay in a dogs mouth is so noticeable!

She had a professional dental cleaning shortly before she came to us though -- wouldn't they have noticed? Chat Icon

Thanks all for the advice. I'm going to talk to the vet about all of this on FriChat Icon
ETA: Love all the advice and info I get on this board!
