What is an easy way to cure horrible dog breathe?

My new dog has horrible breath, and I’m not sure what to do about it.

They have these small green colored bones at Wal-Mart that are supposed to cure bad breath. They are minty or something. I have given them to our other dog before, and she ate them. However, my new dog doesn’t like bones. The lady I got her from told me she had given her a bone before, but she didn’t chew on it, she only licked it a couple of times, and that’s it. So, I don’t think it would be a good idea to get a whole bag of the expensive bones, if she won’t even eat them.

What are some home remedies, or something I could try for her horrible breath? By the way, she isn’t a puppy, so it’s not just puppy breath.

Answer #1

You can get doggy breath mints ^-^ …with my dog they don’t get rid of it but just make it more bearable lol =D

Answer #2

Parsley leaves. They work for humans and animals. If he wont eat them straight, mix them in with his dog food. It works every time and it’s a natural cure for bad breath. You should also be brushing your dogs teeth occasionaly to help with bad breath and with their gums.

Also because he will eat anything he thinks we’ll eat, we pretend to drop it on the floor and panic and he gobbles it up quickly lol ^-^

Bad breath can be a sign of tooth decay or other problems. If its really bad you should have her checked by a vet. Giving her a bone to chew on might help as it helps to remove tartar.
