I’ve had some excellent feedback on improvement of dogs skin problems with this balm. To help your pet from scratching and clearly suffering because of it, give this a go. Some allergies in dogs which are a cause of skin issues could be food related, so a visit to an experienced animal practitioner and an allergy test will tell you more. This is worth having on hand regardless of the cause. At the very least, you can expect a more healthy, glossy and stronger coat.

“This balm has helped my dry lips, dry skin, an itchy skin episode and dry scalp, so it’s more of a multi – purpose balm.  Even 2 dogs with a chronic case of mange resulting in saved lives. I highly recommend this for all dog lovers”
