Keeping Your Dog’s Breath Smelling Fresh

Keeping Your Dog’s Breath Smelling Fresh

Dogs are warm and affectionate, but you do not want your dog breathing on you when he has bad breath. Whether he is curled up next to you or excited to see you after you have been away, it is likely that you will notice your dog’s bad breath if he is nearby. Fortunately, there are simple steps that can help you keep his breath smelling fresh and clean.

Many dogs love chewing raw bones. The bones reduce tarter and help maintain a fresh scent in your dog’s mouth. Keep in mind that cooked bones can dangerous for your dog to chew because they are more likely to break off in your dog’s mouth.

Another way you can help your dog maintain fresh breath is to brush his teeth. When you first start brushing your dog’s teeth, let him get used to the process by using your finger to apply a little dog toothpaste to his teeth. Do not worry about cleaning every tooth. Instead, get your dog comfortable with the process and praise him. Over time, introduce a toothbrush and extend the brushing time until you clean all his teeth. You can also use a mixture of baking soda and water to help your dog’s teeth stay clean and smell fresh.
