Ciara's Ear & Neem Oil

Well, after a few treatments of Tea Tree Oil, Ciara doesn't have the crusty stuff in her ear anymore. What she does have is a scratched up ear. Remedy, a tad bit more tto and a crochet sock I made and a rubberband to keep it on. It's supposed to be for a toddler, but I don't know any and it fit her foot nicely. Hopefully it will stay on during the night and keep her from scratching her ear. I think the ear mites, bacteria, yeast, whatever are gone. And too much tto will make her skin sensitive. So, after tonight, I will switch to the Egyptian Magic. Ciara's a tough dog. I can step on her foot and she just looks at me without saying a woof.

What's next, finding out more on Neem Seed Oil. http://www.mountainroseherbs.com/learn/oilprofile/neem_oil.php
"Medicinal and Cosmetic Use

Because of these properties, it is widely deployed in many different toiletries such as soap, toothpaste, hair care products, and skin care products.

The oil has moisturizing and regenerative properties, contains Vitamin E, and has essential fatty acids. Scientific research today validates many of the traditional uses of Neem Oil, it is used to treat bacterial, fungal, and viral infections, boost the immune system, and for many specific health problems. It is also used to deter mosquitoes, fleas, mites, and lice, flies, ticks.

This stuff sounds like a God in a bottle. People still get leprosy?

Can you tell that I like natural juices and berries?

Tea Tree Oil & Egyptian Magic

If it's good enough for the human, then it's good enough for the dog. I've used tea tree oil for most skin problems and a yeast infection too. I have this other expensive ointment called Egyptian Magic that cleared up this mysterious rash on my neck and other skin problems. An ex hipped me wise to it. Before the military his skin was buttery smooth and even. Then he began to shave leaving his skin riddled with hair bumps and discolored skin. An old man told him about EM. Ex used EM religously and his skin was once again blemish and bump free. It also speeded up Ciara's healing from her operation.

Back to tea tree oil. So, the Epi Otic dog ear cleaning solution cleaned her ear, but something else is WRONG. The tea tree oil called out to me. I googled it and it's perfect for dog ears. What else can tea tree oil do?

The cheapest I've seen Egyptian Magic is $27.95 from Nature & Herbs on amazon. When I bought it a year ago it was $24.95.

Oh and I should have never thought about Ciara's deadbeat male human care giver. He called yesterday while he was at work -a loud barbershop- asking me about a $2 bill he gave me. He said he asked me to put it up in my jewelry drawer of my vanity. Please. He gave me the $2 bill. And then he says, "I can give you two dollars for the bill." WOW. I asked him for $68 for Ciara's Frontline and heartworm pills. He said his car needed repairs and he couldn't go out and buy a new car like me. WTH? So, I hung up the phone. Now I will google $2 bills because people just give them to me like it's nothing. And for him to ask about it, it might be worth something.
