Yes, tree oil is toxic if you use it without dilution. Best products for skin itch is SKIN-EZE. Get this product, you and your dog will be happy.

I have a Blue Heeler that is suffering from chronic, inflammation, itching, thickening of the skin, hair loss and weight loss. I have spent over $600.00 in vet bills to no avail with 6 weeks of injections of Ivomectin (lord know what this does to the internal system) I am at my wits end. I have had her on a course of cortisone via the vets. I have used cod liver oil in her feed for a month, she is on good dry food as well as tinned food and fresh raw bones. I purchased Neem Leaf Oil which can be applied with a carrier oil as it is toxic on it's own. I had been giving her Neem Leaf Powder in her feed (the powder is non toxic but the oil is) I just mixed a past of Baking Soda, Neem Leaf Powder, Calamine Lotion, Olive oil and mixed that to a paintable paste and covered the inflammed areas with that. I then sprayed her whole coat with Canola Cooking spray. The vet said it is not Sarcoptic as the other dog would have it (18 year old Jack Russel so pink skinned and having lived for that long no one can say I don't look after my animals. I am at my wits end. I have just put all the bedding through the wash with Vinegar in the powder as well as Dettol in the rinse cycle. I ma going to now try her on an antihistimine. Yes I have done the research and its quite safe if you weigh the dog. If anyone has any advice please let me know and thank you in advance. I have Organic Coconut Oil but it is extremely expensive. Apparently good quality Sunflower Oil is just as effective. Cheers Heather

apple cide vinegar has to be diluted before spraying on dogs skin, about 1 part ACV to 10 parts water. It will sting v hard if dog has open wound. I like doing a whole body rinse with ACV, just pouring over dog, letting is drip dry. Seems to have instant itching relief. Also thin layer of manuka honey over hot spot or itchy area is soothing too. Also teabags - pour boiling water in bowl with teabag, stir, add cold water, wait till cool enough, place teabag on dogs hot spot for a few mins. Tannins in tea help draw out infection and dry area. Brilliant remedy. Really works.
