there are a few you can look at healthy mouth, petzlife and Leba III. I agree with Gracielove. A raw meaty diet is best for your dogs teeth, there are no carbs to create plaque and tartar build up and the chewing motion actually pushes up into the gum line to clean the teeth. I've seen the results on my own dog. My friend had a 6 year old yorkie with black plaque buildup on her teeth, she bought Leba and followed the instructions. She told me within two weeks it was falling off in chunks. |
Some of these products may be helpful in keeping tartar at bay, but when the odor is already there and the dog is over two, you need to see a vet. Odor is always a symptom of something, and masking the odor is never a solution. |
Very true Nancy. They could have underlying organ or digestive issues. What is your dog eating now. |

And that is also a sign of digestive or organ issues. I have a friend I've just helped out with her wee fella who was in a right mess and it all stopped when we altered his diet and added a few natural items. Truly amazed. Bad breath, wheezing, hair falling out, bloating, constantly itchy, ear infections his feet were raw. |

Dogs can only use toothpastes for dogs, please dont use human's. And, I will suggest to take your dog to vet to see if she needs to do tooth cleaning. Mine had a tooth cleaning last year and cost me around $200 in Vancouver. But, the breath smells back to normal and tartars are all gone. |
My puppy's breath stinks too! |
I can't find where you can post a new message so I'm sorry if I'm starting a new one here. I have a question about tear staining. My Ellie's eyes are always tearing up. I am honest in saying I'm not good about cleaning her eyes every day but when I give her a bath, even that doesn't get rid of the stains like a groomer can. I've heard of Angel Eyes but I'm not real keen on that as I've seen reviews online and I don't feel confident in giving it to my puppy. She's only 5 pounds even though she has just turned 2. Plus, is it a powder? She eats dry food. Do I have to wet it? I have also heard of Nuvet. Has anyone else heard of it? I haven't seen any reviews on it but I've read it's a natural drug or pill form. Any thoughts? |

Some people have had success changing to a good natural diet. I have also heard of people who changed to good purified water seeing less tearing. They do sell little wipes for the dog's eyes to clean the area everyday with and that is important. The build up of moisture does cause a red yeast to start growing on the face where it is damp all the time. Daily cleaning is a must but it is not a solution. We have Gracie on a good quality raw commercial diet and she drinks either distilled or filtered water. We have no tearing. |
Thank you. |
