We have a shelter dog that was going to be put down. It has horrible skin conditions, & we have used everything that the Vet recommended. Someone suggested this product. Does it work ? We also have two Labs that do not have these issues. Tia....

I tried it for a couple months. I didn't see much change.

the commercials make it sound like a miracle worker...which makes me a little suspicious...
I suppose if I were desperate for something (sounds like you are), I would give it a try.
what exactly are the issues with your pup?...there are some very smart folks that read this board and someone may have some advice...

When I was a kid my neighbors had some dogs that had the mange. My dad took some yellow sulfur in powder form and mineral oil. mixed it together and put it all over the dogs and it went away. Don't remember the time frame but it did the trick.

I am not asking for anything but a little help. We are not desperate for anything. I grew up with catch- dogs for cattle & hogs... probably put more down with a blast to the head, that you have ever owned. I just asked a ?... That's all...

It's not the Mange..... It's just a dog that was raised to be a training dog, for fighting dogs. All of her front teeth had been pulled, when my Wife plucked her from doggy death row... and we first took her in, she was very timid & hid under the couch & whimpered . Now she rules the house, but is itchey& bitchey,..

How many different foods have you tried? My lab has had similar issues and we think we figured out it's a food allergy, specifically chicken. The allergy leads to hives which leads to excessive scratching which leads to sores. A lamb formula has the same effect. Changed her food as well as the food for all the other animals to eliminate chicken/lamb formulas and have seen good results.

I second this. Most skin conditions on dogs are caused by food allergies. Does the dog also stink? If so, it could very well be yeast, which is almost always caused by food allergies. We had to put the wife's Pekingese on a raw diet to combat the damn yeast. All kibble has some sort of carb binder in it, this is the cause of the allergy in a lot of cases.

This is where I decided not to help. & if you have catch dogs for cattle, your doing it wrong.

2nd changing up diet. We found that applying organic apple cider vinegar(in a spray bottle, mist it directly on the coat) provided relief, but the itching did not stop until we change our dogs diet. Also, don't bathe the dog too much, it can make the condition worse. When you do bathe it, use an oatmeal based shampoo.
