I have found, with all of my dogs, I use Extra-Virgin Coconut oil.  It comes in 
a tub, and is a solid.  (You can also buy it in capsules if they won't eat the 
solid, but I haven't had that problem.)I give them about 1 TBSP. a day with 
their food, and it has really helped with doggie smell and doggie breath, not 
to mention it has a ton of other benefits for their health.  You can buy it a 
GNC stores.  Just make sure you get the unprocessed coconut oil.  And it's good 
for you too!  It takes about a week or so to really see a difference, but I 
would definitely recommend it to anyone.
Hope this helps!
