Expert Answer

A dog’s bad breath may be caused by oral issues or by indigestion. If the owner does not clean the dog’s mouth regularly, food debris ferments or bacteria grow, easily causing halitosis.

In addition, when a dog has indigestion and food accumulates, stomach gas can rise and cause bad breath. To avoid this, the owner should clean the dog’s mouth regularly and avoid feeding hard-to-digest food, preventing both oral and digestive problems.
