What Makes Dogs and Cats Have Such Foul-Smelling Breath
Can You Smell That Smell?
Putting Bad Pet Breath At Bay
You’re snoozing along. It’s just minutes from the time your alarm will go off and then … Max decides to wake you up just a few minutes early with a big, sloppy, smelly kiss. Blech! While the kiss may have been welcomed, the bad-breath wake-up call is a little unpleasant no matter how you look at it.
What Makes Dogs and Cats Have Such Foul-Smelling Breath?
For one thing, many pets have never had their teeth brushed. That alone can leave the mouth smelling a little gross. Consider how your breath might smell after several days of no brushing… now multiply it by however long it’s been since your pets have had their teeth cleaned. Yeah, yuck.
It’s Not Just About Brushing
Brushing your pets’ teeth will help remove some of the plaque build-up, but basically the minute you’re done brushing, bacteria will begin to repopulate. Some of these bacteria are the culprits for bad breath, emitting the stinky volatile sulfur compounds that make bad breath the number one complaint of pet owners.
So what’s a pet owner to do if brushing is a hassle and it’s pretty much ineffective in the fight against stinky smooches?
How about getting rid of the bacteria that causes the bad breath in the first place? That’s right – by introducing probiotics – or beneficial bacteria – to your pets’ mouths, you can naturally push out the bacteria that emit volatile sulfur compounds and make your pets’ breath kissably fresh.
Teddy’s Pride Oral Care is a probiotic sprinkle that is simply added to pets’ food once daily. This blend of bacteria naturally found in very healthy mouths has been found to reduce bad breath in a matter of days, and by the time your pet has used the entire two month supply in one jar, bad breath will be a distant memory. Morning kisses will never have been sweeter!
