Tri otic ointment 15gm
Q: Our 10 month old mini schnauzer has had a yeast infection in one ear and a bacterial infection in the other. we checked his ears today after we noticed him scratching one and found it to be irritated and red inside. what do you have similar to the tri otic that we've used in the past?
A: We have it under our sku# 10403. it is a prescription product.
Hair loss
Q: Our choc. lab has minor hair loss around his eyes with a small spot of scabbing/abrasions. he also exhibits a small amount of hair loss on the knuckles, not sure if this is in relation to the eyes. he is an indoor dog that does not dig or rub on concrete. i know cats can exhibit the hairloss around the eyes due to parasite's. would this be the same with dogs? or can dogs have allergies? he seems to sneeze a good bit at times, nothing continually, rub at his face and have a very wet nose. thanks for your time and consideration.
A: Sounds more like allergies to me. i would try oral benadryl at dose of 1/2 to 1 mg per pound twice daily as well as add brite coat xs and prozyme to each meal from 1800petmeds which can help skin long term. but should have allergy workup at vet

Eating feces
Q: My beagle eats poop from our other dog we own. how do i stop this. it is horrible. we have two ratt terriers, but the beagle just goes after the one. help
A: Deter is a safe and effective easy to feed chewable tablet. it should be given to the dog whose feces are being eaten. it is used to stop dogs and puppies from consuming feces. consumption of feces (coprophagia) is a common but disturbing habit in dogs. the cause of this behavior is unknown, but this product is formulated to stop this.
Cds
Q: My dog is 16 years old and has cds. she was put on selegiline for a while but we just didn't see any improvement. my vet said there was nothing else that would help. can you sugest something that is not a prescription that can help with the symptoms? she was on a diet that was ment for cds (science diet food) that was suppose to help improve her symptoms but she would not eat it. she also has lost alot of weight. i'm told to have her on a low protein diet but i feel like i need to change it. her spine is really starting to show. she also has a hard time finding the food bowl and when you feed her by hand it is a battle as well. if you have any suggestions that i can do without going over my vets head, i would apreciate it. maybe some vitamins or even something herbal.
A: You could try an herbal product known as senior blend, which contains some western herbs like ginkgo which sometimes can help. it is available from company known as animal apothacary which you can likely find on line somehow. also consider extra antioxidant vitamins like |e at 400iu daily as well as ester c at dose of 1000 mg twice daily. also consider supplement known as bovine colostrum from company known as prosymbiotics and add 1/3 tea of broad spectrum powder from of this company's product per 25 pounds of body weight daily to her food. i have found this product quite helpful
