| Breath Changed Hey Everyone - has anyone noticed a change in their little one's breath from puppy breath to kind of a gross dog breath. My pup is just turning 6 months and in the past two weeks his sweet little puppy breath has become not so sweet! I am thinking maybe bc he is teething bc sometimes I see blood. Can that be it. I brush his teeth. Not sure what is going on. |

| This sometimes happens with teething. If he has any that haven't fallen out, even though the adults ones have come in, that can trap junk in between. Just keep brushing and if he has some that don't eventually fall out on their own, you can have them removed when he gets neutered so that he only has to go under anesthesia once. They aren't as solidly connected to the jaw as adult teeth, so they have a much easier time healing.

| I agree Thanks and yes he does still have some of his baby teeth and his adult teeth have grown behind them. I do brush but I try not to do it every day bc his gums are so sensitive it hurts him. I will get them removed when I neuter him which I think will be next week or the week after. I loved his puppy breath so I hope this breath doesn't last. |
