Bad breath in dogs – causes, tips & solutions
Bad breath in dogs – identify causes and act correctly
Why does my dog's mouth smell?
Many dog owners know this: their four-legged friend greets them with a big kiss – and suddenly there is an unpleasant smell in the air.
Bad breath in dogs is not uncommon and can have many causes:
- Tartar & Plaque: Most common cause of bad breath
- Inflammation in the mouth: gingivitis or periodontitis
- Gastrointestinal problems: Digestive disorders often affect breathing
- Food & Snacks: Inferior ingredients or residue in the mouth
- General diseases: Liver or kidney problems can cause bad breath
Typical signs besides bad breath
- Yellowish or brown coating on the teeth
- Reddened or bleeding gums
- Chewing difficulties, teeth grinding
- Excessive salivation
- Frequent paw rubbing on the mouth
