I have a maremma with a skin irritation on her back and down her tail does any body know what is a good cream?

I have tried aloe both from the botte and the garden. That seems to work but she is still chewing the areas. I have had white dogs before and they seem to suffer from being alergic to flees. Any home remedies or good creams.

Reply:I have same problem for my Shar pei. First I give her crushed garlic mix with her food which can stop fleas to get on her. Then I put calamine lotion (may be I spell wrong, u know the u put on heat rashes) to dry the skin. Finally I cut up a large ice cream tub put around her neck, it stops her chewing the area.


I know Maremma is great big so you may need a bigger bucket or something to put around her neck.


It works for my dog.


Good luck with yours.
Reply:I unfortunately don't have an answer for a home remedy. The safest thing would be to check with your vet, or if you're interested in a more natural treatment, check into a holistic vet.





Please don't use aloe. It can be toxic to dogs. Garlic an also be toxic.
