Last night I held a super well attended and OVER the top informative dog health and nutrition webinar.

Some of the comments...

In cased you missed it, I am having an encore presentation TOMORROW-Thursday Feb 16th at 11AM Pacific.

How to Keep Your Dog Healthy and Naturally Treat Disease with Food and Holistic Remedies.

A wonderful yellow Labrador

When Lewis was a wee puppy, Pearl was our next door neighbor.

They hung out..played together..went to the beach...ate compost together..

And NOW 13 years later they are still buddies :-)

But Pearl SMELLS

She has a chronic dog odor...

So at a recent doggy 'playdate', I concocted a Doggy Odor Shampoo, and now 2 weeks later, Pearl's owner told me that Pearl STILL smells great!

Here's what you need to know. 

Most dogs with a strong odor have an underying overgrowth of yeast or bacteria on their skin.  Usually this is secondary to an allergy.

Yeast can be hard to eliminate.

Although one kitchen ingredient works especially well...

Apple Cider Vinegar.

Here's the RECIPE

The Castile Soap is an all natural, concentrated oil based soap that you can get from any Natural Health Store. It is a great base for any soap/cleaning product etc.. It is made from Olive Oil/Hemp Oil/Coconut Oil

I am now using it in my own Homemade Natural Cleaning Spray as well

The Apple Cider Vinegar is very effective for killing the Yeast and common skin bacteria (Staph), that produce the odor

The Lavender Essential Oil is also effective at killing yeast, bacteria, AND producing a wonderful smell

Mix it all together, and then after you soak your dog, fully lather him/her, focusing on the skin folds which 'hide' the yeast

As soon as you add the Apple Cider Vinegar it turns all white..completely normal.

Here's the BIG point.

It MUST be left on for 10 minutes to be effective ( as bathing your dog with ANY therapeutic shampoo)

I left in on a for a full 10 minutes with Pearll..and 2 weeks later she is smelling like Lavender.
