DOGSWELL® investigates what causes this smelly problem, and offers some helpful tips!
The medical term for stinky breath is Halitosis which is caused by the buildup of bacteria and tartar. When your pet consumes food/treats there are excess food particles that are left behind in their mouth that start to decompose. The bacteria becomes plaque that sticks to the teeth, causing inflammation of the gums. If you see a yellow or brown coating on your pet’s teeth, you have spotted plaque! To get rid of this problem, experts recommend brushing your pet’s teeth on a regular basis. If you visit your local pet store you’ll be able to find toothbrushes and toothpaste formulated for your furry friend! It is recommended that you start to implement dental hygiene when they are young so they grow used to this routine.
There are other great remedies to get rid of the odor that pets will actually enjoy! DOGSWELL® offers a yummy option – BREATHIES® Chicken Breast Treats! These delicious cage free chicken strips are all natural and contain mint and parsley to freshen breath and clean teeth.
