Question
This all started about 1yr.ago bald spots,crusty ears,licking paws shaking of the head like her ears bother her,also her breathe smells like fish, this is all the time.We changed her diet from kibbles and bits to authority dry and can food.She no longer gets bald spots,but everything else seems to be a  problem. Can you give me some ideas on how to treat her. She just seems so miserable.

Answer
Hi Martha, Poor bulldog!  I know what you are going through...  Yes, I have some help for you and your boy.  Follow my instructions in about 60 days you should see some great results.
The Authority dog food is ok, I have something better.  Let's change him over slowly- Do a 50:50 mix of the Authority food and the new food for about 15 days.  Slowly change over so that he doesn't get loose stools.
I have supplements that will help this kid!  Let's get him fixed up for good.
Please remember that I am not a Vet.  If you need a Vet please call your local Vet office.

YEAST - yeast bacteria --- I am sure this baby has an overgrowth of yeast in his ears, skin, coat, and blood stream.
HERE is a link to My Little Health Store:  
The PEARLS product is here for ordering: ( I refer to PEARLS at the bottom of my note)

Also, some great books, too.

Here are 2 supplements to give this baby each day:

Now, for the Yeast:

Next, Please give  some PEARLS - this is Acidophilus Probiotic to give daily for about 90 days.
Give 1 per day of the PEARLS - you can buy this probiotic at GNC stores, Walmart, CVS, Target, or Walgreens.  
This will fight off all the excessive Yeast this baby has.
Do this PEARLS dosage 1-2 x PER Year... HELPS to balance out the system
( not needed year round just a few times PER Year --only)
It is called Pearls -  Ask the Pharmacy person to help you.  
This is for people but pets take it too.

Food,
I would love to see your boy taking a better quality and natural food:
We use  "Life's Abundance" on most of my clients and my personal pets.
I would like to see you use the Life's Abundance dry dog kibble each day.
Mix your old brand and this brand for the 15 days.  ( to slowly change over)
This food will come Fresh to your door.  Delivered fresh from the bakery factory;
You can cook up some Ground Beef or ground turkey and place 1/2 cup on top of the Dry kibble.
This can be done daily or every other day.
You will feed a little less of the Dry dog food when you use the Fresh cooked meat as a topper.

Here is the link to order the Life's Abundance dog food:  It will come fresh to your door.

Last ,

Ask the "NuVET Folks" to also send you the Hot Spot Tea Tree oil Spray - you can use this on areas that are very itchy or red.  It's healing and Natural -  Smells wonderful

For the Bad Breath try this: Cleans the Teeth

Another great product from Life's Abundance:
Works great - Taste is great, too

Ok, the NuVET, Pearls, Holistic Food and the Bad Breath Treats will all help your baby to feel better and smell better, too.
So many American bulldogs suffer from severe allergies to digestion troubles.
I have over 400 American bulldog clients on the NuVET supplement program.
Good food - Supplements and LOTS of LOVE from you is all he needs.
