    Never thought about the hydrogen peroxide bleaching the fur on his paws? That’s interesting.

    And you’re welcome for the information on the cream šŸ™‚

    Your absolutely right, not one thing works for every dog. I stated what works for my pitt. It’s take time to find out what may be causing your dog’s allergies or yeast infection. Not all dogs need to go grain free, But it’s a good place to start because the only other way to truly know what’s causing the allergies is very expensive test, an those aren’t always accurate either.

    I don’t believe there misconceptions, it’s trial an error, there given suggestions an multiple different variations of foods, an remedies. Everything here is opinions and options they used what has worked for their dog an what has failed.

    My pitt can not eat fish based meals, beef or duck. He eats chicken based food, no wheat, soy or by products an has been doing great on that with the other remedies iv only suggested.

    The cream I mentioned to use after wiping ear clean with witch hazel- the same cream women use!! MONISTAT Yeast Infection Treatment –

    yeast infections start in the dog’s digestive tract which can then leak out and manifest as skin problems. Ā  That’s why you need to change there diet – Grain free- staring from the inside out to cure..

    There are an array of antifungal sprays but most dogs will lick a lot of that off. Here is what I use twice a week for paws – spray
    Nature’s specialist wam anti itch spray

    Anti-Yeast Dip

    You can either use a bowl or large coffee cup and dunk the paws daily in the dip.Ā  If you have a smaller dog, you could easily pop them in the sink instead.Ā 

    1 x gallon of warm water
    2 x cups of white vinegar
    1 x cup of hydrogen peroxide

    No need to rinse off just pat the paws dry.Ā Don’t use this solution in your dog’s ears.

    Also need a antifungal shampoo-

    Nature’s Specialties Quick Relief Neem Shampoo

    Hi my Liam is a red nose pit and shar pei mix at the age of 5 the allergies from the sharpei side exploded. Yes I’ve always provided my animals with premium dog food now after my research with yeast infections and the ears I’ve gone completely grain-free food called 4health, Fromm, and Blue Buffalo are very good products.

    To battle the yeast infection in his ears- An yes it works wonders an on contact immediate results-
    Generally, cleaning your dog’s ears once a week is needed, for those with chronic ear infections or a propensity to develop ‘yeasty-type’ smells and infections, 2 drops of witch hazel to 1 tablespoon of baby oil, Apply this solution to a cotton ball and GENTLY clean out the ear. Witch hazel is also referred to as ‘nature’s Neosporin’ and this solution encourages healing on minor skin breaks. It’s a drying agent which your furbaby needs. An Here is the cream to follow that cleaning-Monistate cream- Yep antifungal cream! Added bonus- anti itch, an infection control, swelling reduced with minutes.

    Trust me- or do a little research- Or ask Liam šŸ™‚
