4 Natural Remedies to Treat Your Pet’s Bad Breath

Unfortunately, for a variety of reasons, pets can suffer from bad breath. This may be an indication of some important underlying issues your pet could have and can be unpleasant for the owner. We have a look at a few natural remedies which you can use in order to help put the freshness back into your pet’s smile.

1. Freshly squeezed lemon – Make your pet’s drinking water extra fresh and alkaline by squeezing adding fresh lemon juice to it. This is a basic natural treatment for bad breath, but it is easy and effective. Lemons help to renew a dog’s palette and cleanse his mouth, as well as combat acidity which is directly related to bad breath. Just don’t put too much into their water – it might not taste very nice to your pet. If the lemon juice doesn’t do the trick, try Eugenie Rowson’s Acidity Formula.  Interestingly, lemon juice is also very effective in preventing fleas – read here for more information.

2. Cleansing treats – Dried sweet potato dog chews, chopped carrots and cut up apples will the clean teeth while enriching your dog’s diet. Remember, there may be a bit of trial and error involved, but most pups will happily consume these treats. When in doubt about whether a fruit or vegetable is good for your specific dog, always check with your vet.

3. Change the water – dogs don’t sip water from their bowls like a charming lady, they slurp it. This means that residue from grass to soil can be left in the water and if not changed regularly, can lead to the growth and spreading of harmful germs. Be sure to change their water daily, especially if their bowls are kept outside.

Often, your pet’s bad breath can be related to dental or gum disorders – it is important to treat this issue, and this can be done naturally.

4. Eugenie Rowson’s Vibrational Medicine – An excellent natural remedy is the Dental and Gum Disorders Formula available from The Remedy Shoppe. This mouth spray is easy to use and is completely unobtrusive to your pet. Gingivitis, periodontitis, tooth decay, loose teeth, infection and pain, and in turn, bad breath can all be treated naturally and effectively with the Dental and Gum Disorders Formula – in an easy-to-use and great tasting mouth spray.

Other underlying causes of bad breath could be digestion disorders, poor gut flora, or it may be related to your dog’s diet, e.g. too many carbohydrates in the diet or genetically modified ingredients in the food.  These are also treatable through Eugenie Rowson’s Vibrational Medicine and are all available at The Remedy Shoppe.
