This information originally appeared in the Manning Dog Training newsletter about a year ago. Since then, I've had so many requests for the info that I'm posting it here forever. Betty Pace gave me this "recipe" last year when my pit bull Lizzie was having severe skin problems. Betty got it from another Schnuazer-mom who used it on her dog's itchy feet. Betty tried it too and swears by the results. I used it on Lizzie with limited success, because her itching was caused by demodectic mange, which was a bit more complicated. BUT.....I used it on my OWN mosquito bites and minor skin abrasions last summer, and it worked better than any ready-made remedy I've ever purchased! It's inexpensive, all natural, and easy to mix up. If you have a dog with itching problems caused by allergies, insect bites, healing wounds, sunburn, or hotspots, give it a try. You will need: *witch hazel *aloe vera gel *tea tree oil *lavendar (optional) *and a 4-ounce spritzer bottle. You can get all these ingredients at any drugstore. Fill the spritzer bottle about half and half with the witch hazel and aloe vera gel. Add about 15 drops of tea tree oil. If you want to make it smell even better, add a few drops of lavendar. Shake it up. It will have the consistency of a thin lotion. Apply the lotion daily or as needed, and gently massage into the affected areas.
