smelly breath????

ok I know smelly dog breath is usually from tartar on the teeth. Here's the problem. Paige's breath is really bad. worse then Destinys. Destiny is 4 years old and Paige is not yet 2!

I thought I heard that some health problem can cause a more stinky breath. I don't know. Any ideas?????

Kota did have smelly breath but when I switched her food it got better. Granted her breath still doesn't small like roses..but it doesn't make me gag anymore.

How often do you brush her teeth? I don't know about any health problems that can cause it. But I would start by looking at her food and maybe brushing more often.

Try and have a good look in there to make sure she doesn't have an open sore, something stuck in her teeth, anything like that that could be causing the odor.

ok yes I am bad. I don't usually brush their teeth but I give them hard cookies as treats and I scale their teeth which they hate, of course.

the thing that gets me is hers is worse then Destinys and Paige is the Baby in the family?

Just like people I think genetics plays a big role in the matter.
