Why does my dog's breath smell bad?

Bad breath in dogs is not uncommon and can have many causes:
- Tartar & plaque: The most common cause of bad breath
- Inflammation in the mouth: Gingivitis or periodontitis
- Gastrointestinal problems: Indigestion often affects breathing.
- Food & Snacks: Inferior ingredients or leftovers in the mouth
- Common medical conditions: Liver or kidney problems can cause bad breath.
Typical signs besides bad breath

- Red or bleeding gums
- Chewing difficulties, teeth grinding
- Excessive salivation
- Frequent paw rubbing at the mouth
