I don't think the bad breath is related the food at all though, in this case. Has the vet given a thorough look at her teeth? Anything funky there? Her teeth have been thoroughly looked at. I had a dental done on her in August, they pulled a retained molar which is what i thought was causing the smell. the smell has lessened but its still pretty bad. all her teeth are fine, gums too. its not a problem with her mouth.

Are the conjuctiva of her eyes red (the lining if you pull the lid out)? Is the discharge greenish/smelly? not conjuntivitis either. her eyes are clear and perfect. nothing red, no discharge, no nothing. at the time of her dental i asked the doc to flush her tear ducts and he said they were very small and hard to do.

Sometimes things going on in the mouth can irritate eyes too - as in, sometimes when puppies are teething, there eyes drain more; so it just makes me wonder. Another thing I'd suggest is trying PetzLife Gel - I think it's pretty good stuff. have petzlife gel and spray. use it regularly.
i've taken her to work with me and had the internal medicine vet take a look at her. can't find anything wrong. this week i have been brushing her teeth with the CET toothpaste and then spraying the petzlife in her mouth and it seems to be a little better.
