Question
I read your response to someone about a treatment for my dog's ear mites. Could you give me that recipe? I have a golden retriever that has ear mites that I can't get rid of.
Thank you,
Amy
Hi Amy
There is another great product that I have come across now that is available from www.naturalrearing.com - go to the Products tab, then click onto Specialities Remedies, then scroll down till you find:
YELLOW DOCK
This tincture has given good results in topical treatment of ear mites as described in Dr. Pitcairin’s Natural Health for Dog and Cat book. Full instructions on ear mite treatment included.
You can also keep the ears clean by gently wiping them out with a cotton pad that has been soaked in Colloidal Silver. This may help in the long-term, but you will need to use a product such as Yellow Dock firstly.
I hope this has been helpful.
Thanks,
Silva.
