Besides being a good source of easily absorbable potassium, apple cider vinegar aids digestion, inhibits the growth of unfriendly bacteria and helps maintain the proper acid/alkaline balance of the digestive tract.
Many holistic Vets recommend a daily dosage of:
1 tsp (5 ml) for cats and small dogs (up to 14 lb)
2 tsp (10 ml) for medium dogs (15 to 34 lb)
1 tbsp (15 ml) for large dogs (35 to 84 lb)
Note: Do not feed ACV to dogs that have irritation of the intestinal tract lining.
If you plan to use it for your pets regularly, an excellent organic apple cider vinegar can be ordered online in one gallon containers at a very reasonable price, using the link below: I personally use the BRAGG brand.

my dog is 7 pounds right now so that means i would feed him 1 teaspoon of apple cidar vinegar, but is it ok if i just feed it to him directly without mixing it in his water. He is a VERY picky eater, he barely eats too, so i always have to force feed him nutro supplement and also these oil for his hair to make sure he gets enough nutrients. Additionally, how would i be able to tell if he has a irritable intestinal tract lining? THANKS!!
