My little Yorkie Buttercup started digging and scratching terrible. Dr wants to give meds everyday, and I don't want to do that. I bathe her once a week and condition her. She was about to drive herself and me crazy with the itching. Couldn't eat or sleep. TERRIBLE !!! Have no idea what has caused this. I did not change shampoo or anything.
I was at my wits end and someone told me to try Coconut oil on her. I was willing to try anything. I went to grocery store and spent a wappling $3.99 on it went home and rubbed it everywhere she had been scratching and in 30 minutes she was sound asleep. I could not believe it. I am putting 1/4 teaspoon in her food once a day to keep her skin and hair conditioned. She loves the taste of it and will not hurt her if she licks it.
Just thought I might share this !
