Question
HELP! I have a 3 year old maltese Buddy who has been struggling for 11 months with skin sores.  When it first stared ( afew small spots) The vet treated as Staff.  It would go away and come back.  Vet would treat again with antibiotics and steriod spray. Buddy also started getting eye and ear infections.  This happened until I finally googled and brought findings to vet.  We stoped treating as staff and changed diet thinking it was allergies.  No Change after two months. I went to holistic vet.  Started Raw food diet.  No change.  Did hair analysis. Found he has Four lows and toxic levels of aluminum, cooper etc.  They said to treat four lows first with echenasia, chlorella, fish oil and prozme to digest.  Months later still full of sore that come and go.  They at first only covered stomach , now everywhere worsening. They start out looking like little blisters.  Then pop and become round scabby sores. some the size of nickels. Im afraid to give anymore antibiotics so will going back to vet help???? what else can I try???

Oh Jennifer and Buddy, haw awful for you two!  I would love to help with some Probiotic supplements and a grain-free diet.
All low cost and VERY safe for Buddy.

This is what you need to do:  If the sores look infected, then please see the vet for your LAST round of antibiotics ( I HOPE)

Here is my plan for you:


1.  A good Probiotic will help the YEAST Bacteria overgrowth - must take long term...
....I am sure you baby is LOADED with excessive Yeast in the skin, gut and even blood.
Call around to your local Vitamin/Health stores for Nature's Sunshine:
Flora Force: ( by Nature's Sunsine)--- *CALL around to see if your local health store carries the Nature's Sunshine Products

( get rid of yeast / geat for allergies )
A Probiotic is a must - Flora Force - give 1 per day --- ( give this for at least 2 months - safe and natural...)

2.  Please look for a grain free dog food such as :  Innova EVO, Merrick Before grain, or even the Welness Core brands - Start mixing your food and the new GRAIN free food for 1 month, then go 100% grain free food.


Allergy Blaster Supplement:

3. ******** NuVET Plus - (1 1/2) wafers per day for a few months  - then, go to 1 NuVET per day LONG term...
( The cost is about .65 cents per day for 1 wafer)/  They do have an Auto ship discount program
