Remedy for Pets Dry Skin |
|
|
My recipe is for pets that have dry skin and itch a lot. In a spray bottle (I got at walmart in beauty supplies) add 1/3 cup of baby oil, 1/3 cup of original listerine and 1/3 cup of warm water. Shake the bottle to mix and spray on pet. Works well especially on dogs with dandruff and real dry skin. Rub it in. The pets fur will not be oily but sure makes him feel better. It is really good for dogs that get hot spots. Always shake mixture before spraying pet.

Fantastic remedy! My cockers back was so dry and flaky and no matter what I tried it did not help. This remedy is a miracle cure! After one treatment his scratching stopped and the thick flakes loosened up and were almost gone. With the second treatment his skin and coat look healthy. I can't thank you enough for sharing this remarkable home remedy. I thank you and so do my 4 dogs! Donna

Rettasue, thanks so much for posting this recipe. My 2-year old black lab started getting dandruff on his back and was constantly scratching. I've had him to the vet multiple times. He's been on prednisone and other meds and we've tried several shampoos, including ones from the vet. This solution made him feel and look better almost immediately and has enabled all of us to get a good night's rest. Thanks again.

This is working great for my chihuahua/poodle mix. She's got terribly dry skin & her tummy gets red when she's out & about. A few days with a daily spray down & she's looking & feeling great. The Listerine didn't seem to sting her. She didn't complain when I sprayed her red under belly.

I will be trying this remedy on my cat who suffers from dry skin and the itches. I think it will work well because we use something similar on our horses when the skin on the tailbone becomes dry and itchy. Listerine works wonders for that.

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that your remedy is the best thing I have ever used. Our three Bearded Collies have had an ongoing problem with hot spots. As a matter of fact, just before you posted your suggestion, Ruby's lower back was covered with scabs and she was miserable. There was no way for me to get to the skin to apply medicine to the affected areas. After massaging the solution into those areas. I was able to use a small plastic comb to remove the flakes a little a a time. With that, the skin can now be treated and Ruby is doing so much better - all without having to pay for a visit to the vet! The other problem with long haired dogs like ours is the matted and tangled fur! Today when I worked on Ruby again, I noticed that a matted area right about where I had put on your remedy was so easy to comb out. After that I applied some remedy to any matted stuff and had her coat looking great in a matter of minutes. Before this, it would take forever to brush and comb. I thought about how grateful I was that you were kind enough to post this tip - Many thanks, Elsbeth Many more thank yous from Farley 12, Toby 6 and Ruby 4.

Would this also be good/safe for cats. My cat is always licking or chewing on herself, then throws up a nasty mess later on. She doesn't get bald spots, I just keep thinking there must be a reason. She is not an outside cat. Thanks, Donna
