Cure for a$$-mouth? | Thread profile

Man my house dog has the worst breath i've ever smelled and I think he's going to kill somebody with that horrible stench. Namely, Me. What do you guys do for your dogs with the worst breath. I mean the "worst". It's so bad, damn can't you smell it? I'm serious. I know you're probably laughing at this but I'm in need of a fix, a remedy, a cure, whatever.

Take your dog to the vet and have his mouth checked out. Most cases of really bad breath are dental in origin, so expect to get the teeth cleaned and the dead ones extracted.
