do carrots really get rid of bad breath for dogs?

Answer 1

I would Imagine so, becuase when you bite a carrot with your canines (meat cutting teeth, that dominate a dogs mouth) the carrot breaks into tiny little angles and with more chewing probably removes some plaque......but it probably wont help if your dog has eaten garbage =D

Answer 2

I have never heard of this, but my dogs get carrots, they dig them up out of the garden without parental consent, and their breath still stinks. I brush their teeth twice a day, and they still have bad breath. Good luck.

Answer 3

Don't know about the breath, but they love baby carrots as treats!

Answer 4

No but they are good excersie for teeth and gums.

Answer 5

No, but I can tell you something that does! Go to walmart and get the yellow bag of SAMS treats. OHMYGOSH, they are 100% better than milk bones or any other treats we have tried!

Answer 6

No!!!!!!! We give our dogs carrots all the time, and there breath stinks!

Answer 7

not sure if it'll work with dogs, but a friend of mine proved it. he went out for a smoke and ate a carrot immediately after. if i hadn't seen him i could have said he had not been smoking.

Answer 8

actually, yes. the fibrous quality of the veggie can strip off the plaque from spot's choppers and gums, and his bref will smell much more kissable. but then again, a beet or turnip will do the same thing. you can also just brush his teefies with a toothbrush. (no toothepaste, they hate it).

Answer 9

no, brush 3 times a day and a good flossing before bed should do the trick xD

Answer 10

Chew one and find out.
