Many dogs suffer from allergies that cause a wide range of uncomfortable problems. One of the biggest symptoms of allergies is chronic ear infections, which can be very painful for our pups. One of the best ways to help prevent infection is to clean your dog’s ears with apple cider vinegar. Using apple cider vinegar, or ACV, is a natural and effective way to help ease the pain and suffering that keeps harmful steroids and other medications at bay. Although you shouldn’t attempt any treatment without consulting your veterinarian, using ACV is highly recommended for itching associated with yeast, bacterial and fungal infections. Just as this lovely owner demonstrates with his old pup, it’s an easy, effective and 100% natural way to help your dog.
Remember to check with your veterinarian before starting any sort of home treatment for your dog, as negative side effects can occur. For more information about the health benefits of apple cider vinegar for dogs, you can read this helpful article from The Whole Dog Journal.
