Letter from Mom,
My alternative healing never stops. Dukes has ear mites, so I did some research on the net and what I have found
out to kill those parasitic vermints is to put olive oil in the ear and that smothers them and also put yellow dock down his
ear and bath him in it as well and that kills the eggs. So what I am doing is:
Garlic oil - every other day down his ear canal
Garlic will always kill everything, so why not add it. Put garlic on the food too, it will come out thorough the skin
as well and also help repel flees.
Yellow dock- I bought it in powder form at the health food store. All you have to do is mix it in hot water then stir.
Do not make it to thick otherwise it will not travel done the ear canal to well. Make extra and dump it in the bath tub to
bath with luke warm water and mix. The mites also go to the tip of the tail so don't miss that area. And also gently wash
the ear out.
All this has to be repeated for 6 weeks. I started June11th and I will let you know how if we are successful in treating
him.
8/22/2005- Treating the earmites was successful. But I have been told it is a ongoing deal in this
part of the US. It also taught him how to love baths. He sure got alot of them..................
