First Check This!

One of the most common reasons a dog’s breath may smell like bleach is a kidney problem. When the kidneys aren’t able to function correctly, they’re unable to filter waste products from your dog’s blood. This causes the waste products to build up in your dog’s bloodstream and build up in your dog’s body. This can lead to a dog’s breath smelling like bleach or chemicals.

Kidney problems that cause a dog’s breath to smell like bleach can include infections, kidney stones, kidney failure, and more. You may notice these symptoms along with your dog’s breath smelling like bleach:

  • Drinking more water/increased urination
  • Loss of appetite
  • Depression
  • Vomiting
  • Diarrhea
  • Ulcers in the mouth

If you notice these symptoms and foul-smelling breath, then it’s time to call the vet. Your dog needs to be checked for kidney disease/infection.

Other Causes of Bleach-Smelling Breath in Dogs

Here are a couple of other health issues that may cause a dog’s breath to smell like bleach:

Liver disease: can cause a dog’s breath to smell foul or musty, similar to bleach.

Diabetes: can lead to a dog’s breath smelling sweet or like chemicals

Dental issues: such as infected teeth and gums, can also cause a dog’s breath to smell like bleach.

How to Help Your Dog

The best thing you can do for your dog is to call the vet for a checkup. The vet will be able to check your dog for various health issues and then treat the problem right away. The sooner the condition is treated, the sooner your dog will feel better.

The good news is that once the underlying health issue has been cured, your dog’s breath should go back to his normal, healthy doggie breath again!
