Title: Bad breath
Post by: Leanne on February 26, 2008, 14:06:57 PM
Milo's terribly smelly.

When we saw the vet around 2 weeks ago for his boosters I told the vet who siad it was because he was teething, Milo managed to lick his face so he knew how bad it was, (poor vet) he checked over his teeth and said that they were quite bad but as he'd lose them not to worry, but he is still smelly.

Milo is going to be neutered in around 4 weeks time so whilst his under I am going to get them to check his teeth over but can we do anything in the mean time?

you could let him lick the paste of your finger I don't think it's effective as brushing but it helps a bit I think - is that right Lynn?

Yeh - raw chicken wings or necks!

You could try logic gel - you don't need to brush with that
