I heard before that Dawn works and I used it the only time I got fleas in mine. It worked like a charm.. like someone else said I wouldnt use it often because it can dry out their skin... I just wanted a couple of days and then used their regular conditioning shampoo... |
I dont have any problems with fleas but is good to have this info. :interesti :goodpost: |
Be careful with the garlic [QUOTE=3CrazyYorkies] Fleas & Ticks Fresh garlic in small quantities can help repel fleas by making the animal taste unpleasant to fleas. Grate a small amount of fresh, raw garlic into your pet's food at mealtime, about one-half to 3 chambers of the clove (chamber, not a whole clove) depending on the animal's size. One vet recommends one crushed clove of garlic (not a whole bulb: a clove is just one chamber) per every 30 pounds. Some holistic health practitioners recommend heating the garlic for easier digestion, and to give them garlic twice per week. QUOTE] Per the ASPCA website, garlic can be dangerous for dogs. While I'm sure that a tiny bit probably wouldn't hurt, Yorkies are very small and you can never be too careful. Here is the list from aspca.org: Foods to Avoid Feeding Your Pet - Alcoholic beverages - Avocado - Chocolate (all forms) - Coffee (all forms) - Fatty foods - Macadamia nuts - Moldy or spoiled foods - Onions, onion powder - Raisins and grapes - Salt - Yeast dough - Garlic - Products sweetened with xylitol |
the vinegar rinse is great and makes the coat shiny and soft. |
