Why Does My Dog's Breath SMELL SO BAD? | Dental Disease in Dogs | Vet Explains | Dogtor Pete

Have you ever wondered “Why does my dog’s breath smell so bad?” Well, chances are your dog may be suffering from periodontal disease.

“Periodontitis”, or inflammation of the tissue surrounding the teeth, is one of the most common diseases in older, adult dogs. If left untreated for prolonged periods, it can have detrimental effects on your pets health and wellbeing.

When it comes to dental care, dogs are no different than humans and thus both home and veterinary care are essential to keeping their mouths clean and healthy.

In this video I will explain the causes, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment options for periodontal disease in dogs and at the end I will give you 3 easy tips on how you can prevent your dog from getting dental problems.

Let me know down in the comments if your dog ever had dental problems and what you and your vet did to help him?
