I totally understand. asked:
when she lays beside me she will start licking herself…i have no idea how i can get rid of it…she is a very hyper dog and brushin her teeth wouldn’t work bcuz she would take the toothbrush and run! so if you have had a dog or has 1 who had this problem plz help me!!!!
Go to your vet or the pet store and buy those Greenies treats, apparently they do wonders to improve bad dog breath!
try asking the vet..they may be able to sedate the dog and clean its teeth.
Give her hard crunchy bones to chew on. Or, you could brush her teeth. They actually have toothpaste for dogs.
did you try doing a search on this question before you posted it? I read there is this guy thats suposed to be like the pets gury here.. do a search, you will find lots about preventing dogs bad breath
Try tartar control dog biscuits…… This is definitely her teeth. If that doesnt help, maybe a vet visit would be in order!
Greenies
pedigree makes a breathe bone
also they make dog breath mints..
call a vets office
OK 2 things brush (doggy tooth past and doggy tooth brush) and omg i cant remember the name but they have many types of breath mints for puppy’s and adult dogs (hope i helped)
I agree wit katzchen 17
Give her a Mentos
Extreme bad breath usually happens if the dog has bad teeth. Have this dog’s teeth checked by a vet. A vet can also teach you how to brush your dog’s teeth. It’s not hard.
It can also be a case of poor diet but not as likely as a severe problem with teeth and/or gums.
Go to your vet to see if she has any treats that can help with that. There are also lots of doggy treats that supposedly freshen a dogs breath that you can buy in the pet store or shopping mall.
Take her to the vet. She may have a dental problem. Dogs naturally have bad breath because of what they eat.
hmm i guess theres like dog breath spray at petco or something. but i know someone who uses these breath drops from burt’s bees for their dog. she says it works. you can try that if you want. heres the link:
Well you cant really keep the dog from licking herself. Go to your local pet store and they should have treats except they are mints. If your dog doesnt like them however just try out different brands and flavors.Hope This Helps!!!
Greenies… It’s all about the Greenies.
Go to petco and they have a product called “Greenies” I have yet to see a dog they wouldn’t eat one. It works great for keeping their teeth clean and healthy with the wonderful benefit of ‘good’ breath. (as good as dog breath can get)
Get a good quality rope toy…the ones that appear to be twisted string tied in a knot. Soak it in unsalted broth. Dry it in a very slow oven. she will try to chew all the falovor out of that, and it works as dental floss to keep her teeth clean, and her breath fresh.
If she grows tired, (couple of months)as the flavor is gone, just wash by hand, and re-soak.
Don’t get the ones at the dollar store, but the Hartz ones at your grocery store are ok.
well u have 2 options
first option is: to buy those treats that give ur dog a nice minty breath i think
secod option is: hold down ur dog and brush his teeth then afterwards give him a treat
I worked for Aspen Pet Products for a while, and actually came across a chew toy they make for dogs that contains flouride, which will brush their teeth as they chew it. It’s one of those knotted-rope bones, and it has green dental-floss strands through it. Works fairly well. ^_^
I know what you mean. Our dog hates having his teeth brushed, because he always keeps his teeth together whenever we try to get at his teeth..haha. One christmas we tried giving him doggy breath mints. He spit it out though, so that might not work. It might work with your dog..but.. I don’t know, my dogs pretty picky haha.
You need to consult a vet to make sure there is no medical problem causing the bad breath. He might suggest a cleaning. This is done under anesthesia so the dog will be ok.
You can feed her a product called “Greenies”. they are little semi hard things that have breath fresheners in them. Pedigree has a biscuit called “Breath Busters.
My dog likes to eat ice. This seems to clean his teeth well. He is 10 y/o and never had a cleaning.
there are some ttreats that help teeth. try looking for that at the store. im pretty sure they have them there
Go to your local pet store and buy these little dog bones called Greenies. They’re wonderful for bad doggy breath. I give them to my two pups all the time and they love them. Plus, they’re also sold cheap singly so you can test them first to see if you like the results before you buy a bag!
goto a local pet store and buy him this dental chew snack called ‘GREENIES’ they’re actually quite pricey but yet, it works really good! its normal for dogs to have bad breath so it shouldnt be a big problem, but if possible, take him to a vet and have a dental check-up, just in case he has a dental infection or maybe a gum problem!
Do you feed your dog table food? That can’t cause bad breath because food cause plaque and needs to be removed by brushing. They also have slip on finger brushes for dogs teeth maybe that won’t scare her.
It depends what is causing the bad breath.
You can get little tooth cleaning finger tips that have a brush on them and you slip them on your finger.. that’s what I use for my dog because he would take a brush and run, too.
Or you can get your vet (sometimes local dogspas do it too) to do a full scale cleaning.
Another thing to try is ‘Yipyaps’ if you have the money.. they are dog breath mints.
HOWEVER – you want to look at the source of the problem. Likely, it is one of two things. Either she is having problem with her teeth (not just the outside, but that one is rotting or something) OR she could need her anal gland expressed… which is something either a vet or a groomer who offers the service can do for you. This is a gland that gets clogged and the toxins can affect breath in dogs. Often they are able to unclog it themselves when they lick themselves back there, but some dogs, depending on their build/tongue length/vigor aren’t able to do it for themselves.
Good luck!
if u go 2 petco they have breath strips 4 dogs
