I have a toy Eskie too! She also has bad breath. We find that greenies typically help her - but what helps even more is a deep cleaning at the vet every 9-12 months. It's about $150, but we find that it helps her tremendously. It seems that they are prone to gum disease and if it isn't taken care of, can make them sick and they won't live as long. Of course my wife and I love our dog and so it's worth the investment! I hope it works out for you!
Be cautious of adding things to their food and water as vets will often tell you that these chloryphyl addins and powders actually harm their livers and kidneys - causing even more problems.

Getting the dogs teeth cleaned will certainly help. Also try some liquid chlorophyll. A drop or 2 in the water works for all kinds of obnoxious odors. You can find it at most health food stires, & also most of the liquid breath freshening agents that you see in pet stores have it in them. They work!

Take the canines to the vet. in case you feed your canines canned or moist form nutrition, they could get tartar boost straight away, regardless of BRUSHING. some canines clearly construct tartar up swifter than different canines. an extremely undesirable buildup may reason the gums to grow to be contaminated, which may reason undesirable breath. also, there should be a teeth or teeth with decay less than the gums pronounced as neck lesions. those may reason undesirable breath also. all the treats and Greenies will in hardship-free words mask a symptom. Take the canines to the vet and performance his mouth checked and agenda a dental cleansing.

You can either brush their teeth, put 1/2 of a listerine strip in their mouth or give them these products called greenies, that you can find at your local pet store. Or you can after every 2-3 years, take your dog to the vet and have them clean your dog teeth!

I have an old friend that has given her dog an "Acidophilus" pill for as long as I've known. This is what I found at a dog site about the pill.
"Combines friendly bacteria that promote good intestinal flora in dogs to support good digestive function.* Acidophilus may also help your pets with gas, bad breath, hot spots, cracked skin around the nose and mouth, as well as with fleas and ticks."
Her dog has always had good breath. Good Luck!

get his teeth cleaned at the vet's. No kidding! Like people, bad breath is often caused by bacteria and plaque.

Veterinary teeth cleaning,teeth cleaning chew toys. Greenies are **VERY BAD** for your dog. Choose either hard raw hide or rubber.

yes, like other people have said already, go to the vet and have a cleaning done. If the teeth have tartar stuck to them you aren't going to be able to remove it (or the smell) yourself.
