Re: dog with itchy ears
I would take 1 pint Olive oil and add 1 dropper of the oregano oil and then use 6 drops daily in each ear. I would use cue tips and clean the ears the best you can daily.
I would take the dog off food for 21 days. Tie the dog to a box in fresh grass with a 10 foot or so chain and a plastic bucket of water made fresh daily with 1 drop of oregano oil. No food other than the grass and water it desires.
If you have a little money, I would give this dog Lecithin daily, maybe 1/4 cup with 1/4 cup olive oil premixed. This would be greatly desired by the fasting dog. "IF" I really liked this dog, I would give it 1 quart of dewormer in this 21 days, my stuff, not the high alcohol Clark style.
"IF" I really, really liked this dog, I would give it Sorghum Molassess and "IF" I really loved this animal I would pay out for maple syrup as well. I may even take a pound of Clay and put in a dish and allow him to eat as desired.
I am sure if you added the cost up, it would be far cheaper than surgery and the dog would be younger at the end of the 21 days.
REMEMBER THIS, those lumps and nsaty stuff coming out was caused by the food the dog ate, PERIOD! What the dog was fed after the 21 days will determine how healthy it will remain. "IF" they seek the vaccinations, etc. from the vet, you might as well forget it and put the animal down rathure than torture it with a knife and drugs.
