I'm not big on daily pesticide feed throughs, but I magically don't have a highly sensitive donk, nor a fly problem. I know donkeys aren't horses, but here's a good Q&A article from Horse and Rider. https://horseandrider.com/health/feed-through-fly-controlCeeCeenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-75798042258090247512018-09-06T07:40:36.123-06:002018-09-06T07:40:36.123-06:00Thanks for sharing the info on that salve.Thanks for sharing the info on that salve.Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15454110560303310751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-25242167125602408752018-09-06T07:08:37.122-06:002018-09-06T07:08:37.122-06:00Oh poor George!!

I understand your frustrations as I went through a couple of summers with my little dog having severe skin allergies. The vet put him on short term Cortisone treatment which helped but the allergies came back when treatment stopped. One day, I was chatting with a new neighbour and they told me they used apple cider vinegar on their poodle's allergy-prone ears and it worked. I tried it with Jack and his allergies cleared right up. I was so happy! He had been miserable during the worst periods. Now, if I notice him start to get itchy or have a reddish patch, I will give the area a light spray with the apple cider vinegar and it doesn't progress any further. Don't ya just love those miracle cures?!Serena Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789734075055678964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-54502177339408209372018-09-05T11:24:11.037-06:002018-09-05T11:24:11.037-06:00I use that product on Ben as he has a few skin iss...I use that product on Ben as he has a few skin issues still. His sheath was so bad when he first got here we thought it might be cancer, but it has resolved with treatment and I stay on top if it. Many of these skin issues have a nutritional component, usually a lack of copper and zinc and too much iron. I test my hay and balance the minerals accordingly. If you would ever like to try that, feel free to get in touch, I can show you how to balance the diet. It has amazing results on skin and coat quality, is easy and not too expensive. <br /><br />I'm glad George is doing so well.

Could you have a big fan or two going in (or above) George's pen? (Kris at The Dancing Donkey has some fans going in her barn.) I really think that helps dispel bugs. But clearly you are doing an awesome job with your remedies. /GretchenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-12996298384310398232018-09-05T05:44:49.940-06:002018-09-05T05:44:49.940-06:00What is Allan doing while George is in 'fly-ti...What is Allan doing while George is in 'fly-timeout' ?<br /><br />M in NCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-77966087944924780372018-09-05T04:33:43.390-06:002018-09-05T04:33:43.390-06:00My goodness.
