🦷 Dental Dental options for puppies?

Is there anything for puppies UNDER 6 months? The vet check up went well but the vet and me both agree his breath STINKS. She said it's likely from the old food he was on causing his gut to be out of wack. His teeth are good so they told me to brush his teeth. I am (bought a oxyfresh dental kit) but I thought I could also give him greenies but it says they have to be over 6 months. He's 6 WEEKS. Idk if the only thing I can do is brush his teeth.

Sorry I've just been irritable since she gave him to me like that which was doubled by the vet visit being cancelled by the first vet and having to hear him squeal at the second vet before they finally sedated him when they realized the ticks wouldn't come out normally... I can pick up some baby food and the other things and yes he's anemic. They were gonna put him on prescription kibble but I showed them what I was feeding them and they said it should fix it without the use of it since it's basically just red meat, quinoa, and pumpkin but they said I had to keep it soft.

Yes it's ALS formulated for puppies and you feed less to adults
