Apple Cider Vinegar

About 2 months ago, I began using apple cider vinegar in Lady's water; 3T. to a gallon of water and also spraying it diluted on the areas that she had licked and chewed until they bled. I added brewers yeast and olive oil to her daily meal and used a cone on her head when I wasn't with her to stop the licking. I used a plain aloe and olive oil balm on the skin after the vinegar dried. She doesn't need the cone any more as her skin is great and her hair is growing back in.

HOT SPOT TREATMENT
I just wanted to share a really quick and easy remedy that helped cure a hot spot in my dog. I used some medicated Golds Bonds Powder and would lightly dust it over the wound after I had cleansed and used some other hot spot gel it really helped to soothe and treat the area and dried it as well. He was able to relax and sleep good.
