Hopefully, you tried and found it quite useful. I've used it on dogs, kids, cats and my own feet with great results.

I had a Great Dane who was allergic to grass. No joke. He would get itchy, red splotches all over his feet. I put organic lavender essential oil on his feet and lower legs and it always worked IMMEDIATELY to heal his itchiness and the redness, too, went away immediately. I know this is way too late since it's a little over 5 years since this question was asked but perhaps it can help someone. :)

Angel Eyes, as I recall, had an ingredient in it that my vet didn't like (can't remember which one) so I purchased this product instead which my vet said was ok to use. I have a Coton de Tulear and he seems to be sensitive to various ingredients. Although this didn't bother his sensitivity, it also didn't do much for him either. By the same token I thought Angel eyes was expensive and also didn't work for him. I still haven't found a product that really works. Good luck and I hope you do find a product that actually does what it says.

This helped my dogs better than any allergy medication they were ever on. It may take a few applications following the directions but I've had better results with this. I bought in November of 2013 and that was the only month I had to use it once the licking was under control, plus I give my dogs homeopathic sulphur pills once a day, you can buy on amazon and they are inexpensive compared to shots and medication from the vet. Read up on Sulphur you will be surprised at all the skin problems it helps! Good Luck

I have been giving to my nervous, high strung, itchy dog. I really don't notice any difference, but I am still using it just in case. I think some of her itching is nerves.

I found that as long as I was diligent in washing a minimum of 2x per week, my pet was far less itchy. His problem is with seasonal allergies, so once Fall begins the need to wash so often goes away. I suppose that it depends on the issue your pet is experiencing.

I called VETS-BEST.IT all depends on how long your pet had the symptoms.I have had my lab on the treatment for twenty day an is showing improvement every day. the hair around his eyes and his legs are growing back.Next year I am going to start his treatment in April so he doesn't have to go through these problems next year.i hope this answered your question. johnnie

How long have they been on it? It took my dogs about a good month to work. Not sure if it's hot where you're at but that may also be a factor. When it gets hot I tend to find a flea or two on my pups and that's when I'll add advantix ( temporarily) Hope this helps

I'm just a customer, not a vet. My dog is a small West Highland Terrier. I bathed him twice a week for 3 weeks, now we're down to once a week. Not sure how long we'll continue that routine, but he's doing awesome!!!

Unless the puppy has a really bad irritated, itchy skin, I will not recommend it. I will also ask your vet about it.

I would look for pure essential oils, and carrier oils, high in B's. Fleas hate B. I've used Infusium shampoo on my dogs, and noted how the fleas were quicker to jump off the skin. If I were to go natural, I'd choose a decent carrier oil, and add some Tea Tree, and perhaps another compatible/suitable essential, and massage it into the skin, and fur, after shampooing my dog, massaging it around for a few minutes, and then doing a final rinse. There's plenty of information available online to come up with a proper solution, and please remember to do so. Please never take another's word as the solution, without informing yourself first. Good luck!

That is what is recommended and that's what I do, but I have always had smaller dogs (largest being about 30 lbs.) It does seem like a lot per dog but they are relatively inexpensive and a 1000 tablet bottle will last a long time. I currently have 9 dogs and give 13 pills daily and a bottle lasts me about 3 months. The product really does work I have used it for over 25 years and only once in all those years did I ever have a flea problem and I have always have multiple dogs (anywhere from 5 to 13 at any given time) and also live in a rural wooded area. I swear by them and I think it would be worthwhile giving them a try. They also improve coat and skin conditions. Hope I was of some help to you.

The Isle of Dogs Jasmine & Vanilla shampoo & conditioner would probably be good. I ONLY know Yorkie hair, but my baby was getting nappy fur very close to the skin, under the coat. I started using these products & grooming/brushing daily w/ the Isle of Dogs Silky Coating brush spray. It all worked for us & I wont use anything else now! Lather up the conditioner real good & massage it in, then let it sit & soak in for A few mins before rinsing it all off real good. Also we wash, rinse, repeat, w/ the shampoo. Good Luck!

I have a Yorkie. He weighs 11 pounds and wears a small in everything that I buy him. I got him this sweater in a small. It took forever to get here, and then when I opened it I was very dissatisfied. That sweater wouldn't of even fit a squirrel. I couldn't even get the things over my dogs head. I know it's very cute, but it's made in China so obviously the sizing is a little whacky over there. And then when I wanted toSend the stupid thing back the company that I ordered it from gave me a really hard time. Amazon took care of me though.

I did this, but I took her to the vet after it healed and it turned out my dog had a fungi. But my other dog did have a sore and it was slightly open, he just did it because he was bored. It will have a stinging sensation to them so they will avoid it.

It should be good for itchy skin. I have used it on my chocolate lab that has itchy issues and it helps!
