Chihuahuas need to have their teeth cleaned about once a year...Have you
had that done already? If not... find a good vet and get it done as soon
as possible...bad teeth now can lead to Congestive Heart Failure and a host of
other problems down the road...Its the infection/bacteria in the mouth that can
cause problems in the rest of the body...I have a good vet that charges $50.00
for cleaning which includes any extractions that need to be done...and there is
another in my area that charges $150.00-$200.00...so you might need to shop
around...Keep in mind they are under anesthesia while this is done so there is
always a risk but I believe the benefits outweigh the risk...
It has been my experience that the cleaning will also "temporarily" cure
the bad breath...it will resurface once your chi's teeth begin to build up
"yuck" again but if yours will let you brush them...you might be able to
keep the breath under control once you get them cleaned...
