| Stinky Breath! My little guy is currently teething and has lost a few of his baby teeth. I have noticed now that his breath STINKS! He never had bad breath before his teeth started coming in. Is this normal? Any suggestions. We have tried some breath mints from Petsmart and we brush his teeth regularly with puppy paste, but over the past few days... man oh man! |

| Not too uncommon if he gets some pieces of food trapped around those little baby chompers. Sometimes they swallow a little blood when the teeth come out and that can make breath smell a bit. I always recommend probiotics for stinky breath because usually it goes farther than the mouth. It certainly couldn't hurt in this case, but the breath should ease up when the teeth are done. Keep up with those toofers and you'll all benefit. Probiotics: (For a yorkie, this stuff will last FOREVER!) BacPak Plus from N'Zymes.com For $26.00, it's about 2 years worth of no farts and comfie bellies. (Might as well split it with another yorkie parent!) I'm sure a lot of people will pay more than that for one or two sweaters that their furbaby will grow out of! Oh also, watch out fr those breathmints. If they contain xylitol, your boy may get a nasty case of the runs! Last edited by jatango; 04-17-2007 at 06:15 PM. |
