Skin issues

Whilst I have been feeding Taz raw, many of her niggly skin issues have virtually gone - resolved.

And thanks to advice on here from Ella I use ACV with mother, in her meals, but read somewhere to dilute 1/2 with water and spray on skin issues. All the money I've spent & worry, on vet meds and skin remedies. One application of ACV - gone next day - I'm impressed, natural product - no nasty chems and success!!

Our Aunty Ella is quite a remarkable lady.

Isnt it astonishing how much a natural diet can effect things. People dont know they're alive until they go natural, same with dogs! i fully intend to go natural with my next dog (cant right now, odd circumstances)

ACV works on people too glad Taz's skin issues have cleared up

Blimey ! Sounds awesome !

Am the same here aswell Pauline... I cringe when i think how much money i spent in the vets with Inca when she was going through all her skin issue's and i wish i had known about ACV then as I use it now for my 2 girls as Sky was having a few issue's with itching an her fur thinning out aswell but the itching basically stopped the day after i sprayed her coat with a dilute of ACV ... Could not believe how quickly it worked for her and i put a few drops in their food every morning and Sky's fur doesn't seem to be getting worse so fingers xd ( i think its an allergy to fleas so i put her straight on Advocate before realising ACV was out there)...

Same here!! lol - the last meds I had was Advocate - but I really detest using chems unless absolutely necessary .. and of course the penny pinching helps in today's economy!!

really pleased that you & your beloved four legged's have found the benefits of ACV - It appears to work with ear mites too - which is a dog god send

haha ~ I read it was good for humans too on feedback in Amazon - I tried a bit .. yuk!!

I am in Australia, could you please tell me what is ACV?

I think Ijust found it. Apple Cider Vinegar,I just need to know how to use it.
my girl has a bald patch on her itchy tail, hopefully this will help. thanks for any help

I add it to Daisy's food   a teaspoon in each meal (she's fed twice a day)

Thanks Sazzle I will let you know how my girl gets on. I wonder if it will help with her allways sucking her toes?

You can use it to clean her feet, just add a little to some water x

ok thanks, will try that, I will keep you all posted as to how she goes.
thanks again'

Do let us know... My Flo has toe issues too.

Just be careful not to put it on broken skin as it hurts like hell!

yes, I will be careful, the vet told me to put metho in a spray bottle and use that, because it dries fast.
I think I might try the neem oil again, on her toes, it seemed to work on her genitailia rash, so think I will give that a go.

Neem is good too, I add oil to shampoo and powder to food or add the powder to water and apply to skin   

I too have recently been using ACV on a bregular basis and has made a huge difference to Vins itchy skin xx
