    Puppy Breath

    I've often seen posts about loving puppy breath. Not having had a puppy in many years, it's got me wondering, what is puppy breath. Our last puppy was a Dalmatian and was told that they do not have puppy breath like most dogs. Maybe because they metabolize protein different than other dogs.

    OK, describe puppy breath to me please.

    it's been so long since I've smelled puppy breath also, but it sort of reminded me of a newborn baby and the smell of a hint of sweetness in their breath. it just has a sweetness freshness aroma to it.
    for puppies it only lasts a couple months. once they start eating poop, licking butts, well, that sort of pops the puppy smell bubble. Actually, once they start building up some tartar on their teeth and I think as their systems develop and they break down food differently, the puppy breath goes away, but it sure is nice while it lasts!

    It's a hypnotizing you can do anything you want because your so cute and you smell cute kinda smell. LOL, in all seriousness I think they have puppy breath to distract us from the naughty things they do

    My favorite smell! I am not even sure how to describe it. I do know people that think it is not so pleasant, to each their own.

    It's hard to describe, but I definitely crave it! My daughter thought it was disgusting, but I totally disagree.

    I think it smells like bologna. Not a big bologna fan.

    It does not last long enough. If I could bottle it I would be rich beyond belief. I can't even begin to describe it....
