I've been adding to my feed. About a tablespoon a day. My bulldog is dealing with generalized mange and I've been reading it's supposed to help control the mites. I guess it also helps externally for hotspots and fungal infections. Don't know how well it's suppose to help but I figure it couldn't hurt.
I have heard all kinds of "claimed properties" of Apple Cider Vinegar, but in truth there isn't much FACT to go on. A nutritional analysis of one tablespoon (which is about as much as anyone takes) reveals that the vinegar contains less than a ram of carbohydrate, along with minuscule amounts of calcium, iron, magnesium, sodium, copper, manganese, and phosphorus; and a mere 15 mg of potassium. The fiber, vitamin, and amino acid content is zero.
As far as I know, the only benefit of the vinegar is that it can aid in the lowering of cholesterol, and possibly clean-out clogged arteries, in much the same way running a cycle of vinegar through your coffee maker greatly increases the flow of your machine for the next pot you brew
I think it also acts as a mild duretic.
demodex you mean? ectodex is about the only product that really works for it, contains "amitraz"Originally Posted by Steeldog
good luck
Everything in moderation. Since ACV acts as a natural fat blocker and dogs use fat as the biggest part of its diet you might not want to use much. This is why it help clean a dog out. Too much of anything isn't good.

Seriously, i was looking at a bottle just a few days ago, explaining i have read that it helps to get dogs to burn more of their internal fats. Haven't done research, and realy don't need it that much so left the bottle on the shelf.
