My dog's breath smells like rotting meat, do you know what could be causing this?
Full Question:
Hi!We have a 1 1/2 year old beagle and his breath just starting smelling really bad like rotting meat. He is on an all raw meat diet, do you know what may be causing this smell?
Thanks!

Cindy's Answer:
It can be a general health issue, or a cracked/infected tooth, an injury inside the mouth, etc. Check all his teeth to make sure he doesn't have something (like a stick or other foreign object) wedged between his back teeth. I'd recommend a visit to the vet.
