Question
I believe my dog had poison Ivy and was wondering what type of topical medicine I can use on the ivy spots.  I have already started benadryl and will give him a bath later this evening. What else should I be doing?

Answer
Hi Tom - Yes, a good oatmeal bath is very soothing... The key to this is to reduce itching and stop possible infection:
Here are my suggestions for your kid.

The following are supplements that are all low cost :  Can be used over and over for allergies, rashes..... Good to have on-hand!
 ***NuVET Plus - Wafer supplement/ the BEST Immune system booster in the USA.  Helps to fight off allergies and other skin/coat problems.  Will help him to fight off the possible infections than can come along with this Poison Ivy Problem..

NuVET will also protect him from joint problems and Arthritis problems...
