QuestionMy dalmation pup 12 months his coat has started to turn brown between his shoulders and down his back. I think its commining from his skin which looks red and oily with brown patches. He is on flea treatment and I have never been able to find a flea on him despite plenty of searching. He is only ever feed raw chicken bones and veges and garlic. do you have any suggestions ? im very keen on treating him naturally rather than medication.
AnswerHi Tracey - Well, sounds like you have a good feeding program for your kid. Dalmations care prone to skin and coat problems. I am thinking this is a yeast bacteria on your boy... Yes, very easy to treat yeast with NuVET Plus and Acidophilus 1 billion CFUS.
You can get the 1 billion CFUs at any health food store - I would put him on 1 per day for 2 months. Then, go one every-other-day for another 30 days. This probiotic/ Acidophilus is very safe for him to take..
Next, NuVET Plus WAFERS are a must for your boy - i would like to see him take 2 per day for 30 days...AFTER that, he can go down to just one per day:
A bottle of 30 is only 19.95
A bottle of 60 is about 39.00
You may want to get the 90 count bottle - then you don't have to pay shipping every month.... they ship right to your home by the USPS - Priority Mail ...
Here is how to order /
NuVET Plus program -

**this is an Allergy blaster and Immune system Booster.
It will help him to build up Against all the allergens that are hitting him. ( yeast can bring on allergies)

Keep in touch and let me know how he ( they ) does - NuVET gives you a 60 day money back guarantee.
I do think you are doing a good job with his feeding / He is just allergic and the yeast is showing a Weakened Immune system - The yeast is a warning sign that he has allergies. Most likely his allergies are Environmental and OUT of your Control...
