Yorkie Has Bad Skin Problem

Posted by Sheri (Richmond, Va ) on 01/24/2015

I have a Yorkie and he has a bad skin problem and I've taken him to the vet several times for this but all they do is put him on Steroids and give him an antibiotic. It helps while he's taking the medication, but as soon as he stops, right back to square one. I am desperate for some help and advice, I don't know what to do and it's just getting worse. I've tried coconut oil but that makes him greasy although he seemed to like it, is there anything I can do for my fur baby???

Hey Sheri!

You might consider Ted's Borax protocol for dogs in conjunction with Ted's mange remedy [bath] or the anti-staph remedy [bath].

Also consider the diet; grain based diets contribute to systemic yeast infections.
