September 17, 2008 at 10:44 am #83357SweetypyeMemberI am not sure I would use very harsh products on this dog’s skin, have you looked into Quistel?
September 17, 2008 at 11:03 am #83358.dodger.MemberNo have no idea what Quistel is but will have a look at it.
tbh claire i don’t think it is to do with the food. All of the other dogs are/were doing really really well on it and Tila’s skin has been like this before i took her in. Granted it was only around her back legs and private parts but the condition has been there.
thanks for all the advise everyoneSeptember 17, 2008 at 11:11 am #83359SweetypyeMemberhttp://www.quistel.co.uk/index.php?page=home
The lotion is really superb for hot spots, skin eruptions etc.
September 17, 2008 at 11:13 am #83360AnonymousGuestHi,
Quistel is some kind of shampoo stuff – Val reccommends it so I would ask her where to get it from.
Have you thought about getting a skin scrape done ? would anyone else advise this ?

September 17, 2008 at 11:16 am #83361.dodger.Memberthanks it looks good – will have a search around for the cheapest.
September 17, 2008 at 11:24 am #83362AnonymousGuestjust a thought Laura …
Emma may be able to get it from one of her suppliers at a discount for you or near Emma is a lady with a dog called Ava and another younger dog a border collie who is a groomer up there too she might be able to get it at a discount. I am sure she is or was on RD and hope that is enough info to trace her ! I am hoping they are near(ish) to you aswell.
just a thought ?

September 17, 2008 at 9:52 pm #83364SuzAndTheDivaMemberI will warn you it smells like something died in the pot Laura >:D :yes:
September 18, 2008 at 2:08 pm #83365AnonymousGuestIt’s good but it’s not cheap Benzl Benzoate is cheaper and will work on yeast infections she has not got hot spots because of the smell she needs a full bath not a fortune spent on spots :crazy:

[/quote]September 18, 2008 at 4:02 pm #83366.dodger.Memberyep she hasn’t got hot spots and since i ain’t got no money think i’ll go with the Benzl Benzoate – do know where i can get this cheap Val? Can’t find it on ebay? ???
September 18, 2008 at 7:37 pm #83367AnonymousGuestHi,
chemists Laura
or saddlers / horse shops (it’ll be near sweet itch meds)
be worth asking Ava’s mommy if she has some Quistel or BB you could “have a bit of” or if they can get it reduced.
BB – is about £10 for 1L

September 18, 2008 at 7:43 pm #83368AnonymousGuestHi again,
not sure how much you need laura but you can get 500ml for about £5 and 100ml for £2.
Val – how much do you recon she’ll need ?

eta: me again ! some places will have it called ASCABIOL but its the same stuff.
September 18, 2008 at 7:51 pm #83369AnonymousGuestBuy it in the local chemist it’s less that a fiver :ok:
September 18, 2008 at 7:58 pm #83370.dodger.Memberokay thats great thanks you two :-* how much do you think i will need then Val? would 100ml be alright? Do i just dilute it into some warm water with a bit of shampoo?
