It is important to periodically check your dog for yeast related diseases especially if your dog has lots of wool and flippy ears etc. In case your dog got yeast infection it is important to realize that it will take time for it to heal and fully re-cooperate.

People have seeing trusted results with this and it is only yogurt so you can be sure that it want harm your dog. Although it is alright to try out some home remedies if the problem continues for a while like two weeks it is a good idea to consult a veterinarian. When it comes to the diet raw meat is the best thing you can provide during this period.
Another home remedy that can be applied externally and which is quite popular among most dog owners as well is applying apple cider vinegar. Apply this again for around two weeks and if you are not seeing results consult a veterinarian.

Hi there.
Both of my dogs had sever recurring yeast infections for over 2 years. I was forced to look for alternatives when the older dog became very ill due to excessive use of antibiotics that did nothing to cure the problem. I began researching natural remedies and how changes to the diet can have a beneficial effect as most dog ear yeast infections are an allergy to the terrible dog food we feed them. Well, after some experimentation I have now had yeast free dogs for over 3 years. The solution is much easier than people think but theres a lot of educating still to do.
