Natural Treatment For Superficial Pyoderma In Dogs?
My dog (a mut, short hair) has superficial pyoderma on the inside of his hind legs. The main skin problem is a bunch of little red circles that are puffy and take up about 1/2 inch on his inner thigh. No pus, but they look like blisters. The vet just put him on cephalexin 500mg two times a day. He weighs 65 pounds and is 1.5 years old. His diet is Blue (natural dog food) combined with organic vegetables. I give him Vitamin E (800 mg a day according to the vet), vitamin C (500mg a day) and salmon oil. What else should I add to his diet?
He has been on the antibiotic now for 4 days and it still looks the same. I put calendula gel and aloe on it. What is a natural way to treat this?
His diet has not changed, he does not have fleas and he has never had allergies. Please help. Thanks!

I would say the Aloe is great,, My sons dog had the same problem.. He spent so much money taking him to the vet. It lasted up until he was about 3 yrs old.. It seems like he was given just about the same thing’s your dog has been given, nothing lasted for long .. MY Son Loves that Dog and was So worried about him.. He Kept saying I know the dog is miserable,, One thing was he stopped bathing him so much.,, So not to wash away the natural body oils,,, It was just making matters worse, He just also tried to keep the medications on him, and started using aloe.. It was almost like he had to grow out of it… But I’m sure the antibodies, and other treatments the vet put the dog on help out ..
The best of luck to you and your best friend
