How do you get rid of bad breath in dogs?

Answer by  sharon4595 (650)

Dogs have a lot of bacteria in their mouths, you need to brush their teeth at least twice a day. You can use a little bit of bakingsoda on a toothbrush or get doggy toothpaste at a pet store. Make sure he drinks a lot of water to keep him cleaned out, this should help.

First check if your dog's teeth and gum needs any veterinary care. If everything is healthy, you can try to give dental chews with mint flavors. Also try brushing his teeth with dog toothpaste once every couple of days. There are additives you can add to his drinking water for bad breath as well.

Try dog toothpaste and toothbrushes. There are several varieties of both available at any commercial pet store. Some dogs are skittish about having their mouth and teeth touched, so you should experiment until you find the type of toothpaste and brush that work for your dog, then use weekly.
