My dog started having
-Ear infections ( which resolved with applying zinc oxide ointment in his ears )
-Biting scratching his feet and his whole body which then developed to deep bloody sores .
- He couldn't stop licking himself, the whole 24/7 he licked his sores ( which he caused himself by obsessively biting himself ) and other parts of his body
-he developed ( from long time before other symptoms appear ) ocular melanosis ( colorful patches ( similar to color of cornea ) in white part of eye
-some sores on his soft palate
all indicators of a weak/malfunctioning immune system, that's what I guess .
-He developed many rigid, nailing-like furs
-Many yellowish spots beside many red inflamed spots on his skin
things didn't help :
- dietary changes ( eliminating gluten, sugars ... no dry food, no canned food, no sweets, no sugar, he has always been on a healthy diet but sometimes we gave him dry food or cookies which we even stopped it immediately)
-apple cider vinegar ( both spraying on him and adding to his food )
which helped :
TURMERIC + Probiotic pills ( by boosting immune system ) but " just after some days we stopped probiotics " so I think which really helped was TURMERIC .
+ Stopped biting himself gradually and just after some days he completely has stopped licking and biting himself
+ all Sores started healing and resolved after few days
-Melanosis is still there in his eye ( not sure if contributed to immune system or food allergies, maybe it's normal! )
-sores on his soft palate are still there, I'll keep monitoring and we'll update the post if anything changed
+his fur became softer
+spots are all wiped out
i think it's useful to add that, we used to boil his food in water containing turmeric but " it never helped ", but " adding one teaspoon of turmeric every day directly to his food " helped, if you mix it with the food ( not dry food ) the dog wont notice it and will eat it, but the ratio of food to turmeric is important .
He is sleeping deeply now, started playing again and feeling better.
