| Coconut oil therapy? fragaria vesca? In another thread regarding Yorkies vs. Silkies, Carmen in NJ has a link to her webside Stone Hill Silky Terriors. (BTW Carmen, loved your website!! I have a Yorkie but there is SO much information on your website that we can all use!!) Under the holistic pet tab, there is information regarding using coconut oil that states: Do your dog’s paws smell like corn chips or are their ears inflamed and always dirty? Fido may be experiencing a common digestive system yeast infection (also called Candida). I believe this is an except from Whole Dog Journal. I have seen a thread on here before about our babies having "frito" feet. My Maddie's feet definately smell like fritos within a couple days of her bath. Has anyone here used coconut oil? What have your results been? There is also information on "fragaria vesca" for placque on teeth. Any users? |

YT 2000 Club Member | I will be watching this thread also. I just bought some coconut oil for the purposes you listed, frito feet and the red endless staining that my dogs have depsite trying everything else. I purchased it from a member of yt that sells it. I just started it today. Im sure it will take a few weeks to "kick in" but I will update agian in a couple of weeks. I have read on here how good that it works from other members so Im keeping my fingers crossed that it works for us..
