Foul breath in dogs and cats isn't normal. It's a red flag for tartar buildup and periodontal disease which can harm internal organs.

Pet Bad Breath? Don't Ignore It, It Could Be Severe Periodontal Disease

When your pet's kisses come with an unbearable odor, it's not just "dog breath"—it's a sign of a serious health issue. Over 80% of dogs and cats over the age of 3 suffer from periodontal disease caused by tartar and plaque buildup.

While dental scaling requires anesthesia and must be done by a vet (which we gladly refer you to via our partners), hygiene plays a huge role in overall smell. The hair around your pet's mouth often traps drool and old food, contributing to the stink.

At Pet NGON, our Deep Bath and Hygiene services thoroughly clean the facial hair, ears, and anal glands, ensuring your pet smells fresh everywhere else!
