Yeast Infection on Chest

You can get it several places... there's a TON of Wiccan sellers on ebay that have essence oils. There are a lot of products on line that state "tea tree infused" Also if there's an organics or herbalist store in your area they would also have it. Just do a google search for it and a ton of stuff will come up.

He is actually responding quite well to the oral meds.
The thickness of the area has thinned out and you can actually see some smooth skin underneath....not itching as much either.
Hopefully he will continue healing once this round of meds is finished.
Thanks all for the responses.

You can get 100% tree tea oil sometimes at walmart, but a holistic store/natural herb store. You can also get a shampoo with tea tree oil in it at beauty supply stores. Really not much more expensive. Just out of curiossity did the vet say anything about mange? The 3% peroxide is also good to cure that.... The keflex and antifungals are a good start. Kudos to you for saving that pooch! Our Annie has only been with 3 weeks, but has become a part of our family, and when she got in the garbage yesterday and poisoned herself I thought I would lose my mind. She's okay, and I hope your buddy a speedy recovery.

Glad to hear there is already improvement.

Honestly, at this point, I would not change the treatment w/o veterinary advice. The dog is getting better and I think I would stay the present course. IF in the future, after he has gotten better or is off medication, if you want to try shampoo with Tea Tree Oils etc. then it is up to you. You can get this stuff in shampoo for dogs.

But.. with things going the right way my thinking is if it ain't broke, don't fix it.....
