My 6 pound Chihuahua suffers itchy skin allergies. My vet recommended washing his feet with a baby wipe whenever he comes in from outside. Since Remi’s itching was not just on his paws, I started a nightly regimen of a full body wash up with the wipes followed by a light coating of coconut oil rubbed into his coat well so it would also reach his skin. This treatment has not only almost completely eliminated the itching but has also turned his coat from dull and dry to soft and shiny.

Sixty years ago saving animals with Malox anit-diarrhea medicine. And giving kittens baths and popping fleas off their bodies. The fleas eating kittens up. I bet you see it all. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for this! As another person stated my cat has been throwing up almost routinely that started because of his age. Even after other Veterinarian advice; this was not mentioned. I ended up using Camomile sprinkled in his food. I am pleased to see a Veterinarian trying to truly help pet owners without paying thousands of dollars to try to help routine problems that humans can go to their drugstore for a remedy.❤

Your channel has totally helped me with my pups and cats. You’ve helped me more than any vet ever has. I use the vet only for their upkeep on immunization or emergency purposes. They are very sensitive pups and would get seizures. I never got an answer from the vet that helped. Following your advice on food and acceptable snacks along with other suggestions has completely improved their quality of life and helped with the anxiety I would suffer with my babies. It’s rare now that they get a seizure. I’m a long time Patreon. I recommend your subs become Patreons to your channel! It will sooo help with the care for your pet family ❤️🙏🏻

My brother's old cat got in a fight and had a hole about the size of a quarter (1" dia) in it's front leg, too big to stitch together (you couksee the muscle underneath). The "free" vet clinic (donations only) near him the vet recommended he gets triple antibiotic cream at the store and Preparation-H... Apparently the ingredient in the Prep-H promotes scabbing over, a few weeks with a cone on his head (to keep him from licking it and reopening g it) a nice scab formed and it was healing nicely.

Invaluable info. My 15yo diabetic pup Hermie would get sick after insulin shots. So he's been on o.t.c. Pepcid (Famotidine) from 2019 to 2023. He is a 40 pnd. minibulldog and started on 10mg after each shot but our vet increased dose to 1- (cut 20mg) to get 15mg before breakfast & 1ea, 20mg @ supper (12 hours apart). Generic Reglan was also added with ea dose of Pepsid. I'd buy the 20mg Famotidine at Walmart in multi packs (cheaper) and give it to him with a pinch of cold Philadelphia creamcheese...He always thinks it's snacky time taking pills. This channel is a Godsend. Thank you!😊

He’s suffering from hot spots on his tail as well. Poor guys going through it.

Really need your advice and is there a way? Your kindness would be deeply appreciated. You have helped me so much this year. The advice I need is too much to write out in comments. My fur child is a senior Rottweiler/Pitt mix . The first time in his life to get sick was January this year. His doctor was out of town and a very young vet that works under him treated him. There have been problems since. Only once was his doctor in office. His doctor did call twice over this period of time … I trusted the vet who was working under him and realized in late April I should not have. Trying to figure things out (what to do) on my own. Thank you for all you do Doctor Jones. You are wonderful.

My vet suggested Neosporin (Sp?) for my Bengal kitty's skin when she was reacting with horrendous itching and scary seizures from various kibble brands. The dollar tree version worked just fine, after I tried it. I started feeding her tinned catfood with giblets for taurine, mixed with pumpkin puree. (Your anti-itch spray did not help at all, sadly, since I optimistically bought two). When her fur grew back and she hadn't had a seizure for several months, I gave her a serving of kibble and within hours, she seized, eliminating dry food for my girlfriend. She loves the pumpkin mixture and the cooked meat and liver I supplement with, but I wonder whether I should continue the puree.

Definitely canesten&hydrocortisol is kind of substitiute for Orydermil because they almost have the same chemical compound. Long term use of Orydermil causes secondary metabolic diseseas, actually any antihistemic . Such as thyroid problems. Or cushing
