Vinegar and Cider Vinegar for pet health
I read the following hints in a book about the many uses of vinegar...
Get rid of [and prevent] fleas by adding cider vinegar to your pets drinking water. Start with a few drops and build up to a teaspoon in a bowlful for a small animal and a tablespoon in a bowlful for a large dog. Worth a try... surely better than putting a load of chemicals on your pet.
For a skin and coat conditioner after a bath use 1 part of cider vinegar to 3 parts of water as a final rinse. It works like a vinegar hair rinse, making the coat shiny, and is helpful in dealing with skin infections.
There are many vitamins and minerals and other nutrients available in cider vinegar... which are a bonus for your dogs health [and for our health too if we take it as a supplement in drinking water... if you want to sweeten it, use honey for an extra boost to your health].
Please make certain, when buying for internal consumption, to buy organic unfiltered and unpasteurised cider vinegar. It will look different to the ordinary cider vinegar in that there is a certain cloudiness to it and there will be a sediment on the bottom of the bottle.
All sorts of natural hints and tips can be found in Dog Skin Solutions. Why not have a look?
