My 4-year-old has breath to kill!!! Mouth rinse that is added to the water is VERY effective. Also, look in the pup's mouth for an abscess, tooth coming in wrong, dry blood, or an infection. In older dogs, this breath is caused by gingivitis, gum disease, due to the fact that they have tiny mouths and really don't eat the bones that will self-clean their teeth. Brush frequently. They loooove chicken flavored toothpaste....Petsmart has this and the rinse. I know they advocate once per day, but I normally do Lilly's twice a week with good success. Also, they now offer holistic, homeopathic dental cleaning with no anesthesia. I just had the older dog done with HUGE success. It's also much cheaper.
