Goodtoknow asked:


She spent 4 days at the vets getting IV fluids and pain medication. She came home today with a pain medication releasing patch and the vet said to feed her her regular diet with no added treats or fatty foods. I cant even get her to eat anything. I have to use a syringe to get her to drink water. Any ideas on how to get her to start eating??

PostHeaderIcon What can I safely use on dogs to combat ringworm?

asked:


The vet said it wasn’t ringworm, but it is round patches, they both have them. The vet has given antibiotics and prednisone. One is on an allergy diet. I bathe them with a shampoo that contains triclosan, sulfur, and salicylic acid. It’s just getting worse. Should I add tea tree to the shampoo? Can I try tinactin?
I haven’t caught it, neither has the cat. Dr. also said it wasn’t mange, but he hasn’t said what it is either.
Jess, yes, I am looking for home remedies, since my multiple visits to the vet haven’t stopped the problem. Where do you think I got the antibiotics and prednisone? But I don’t recall him actually testing, just eyeballing and treating.
I am asking about Tinactin because I think it looks like ringworm, even though the vet said it wasn’t, and because the other treatments were not stopping the spread.
