hello glng675,
ya..i heard about feeding brown sugar to sick dogs. i've not tried. wonder if it works..hmmm
i guess bathing dog at seaside to treat mange is quite explainable. sea water contain salt and salt solution does kill most of the bacteria/mites/fungus.

For dogs with mild fungal infection on the skin, try to mix a bit of vinegar (very diluted please) to the shampoo. Soak the dog for at least 10 minutes. The acidity of the vinegar will kill or at least prevent the yeast infection from spreading.

sorry - forgot to mark send notification on reply...
Vinegar? I use apple cider vinegar you can get from supermarkets - look in the cooking section where the store pickles, preserved stuff etc. I dilute about 5 ml to about 500ml - vinegar is actually sour and acidic so it helps combat yeast infections (which need alkaline conditions to survive).
I find that it helps my terrier which has yeast infection on her skin.

anyway still think that using the modern way is most effective, i tried some traditional method on my guinea pig (wah, really guinea pig man) but end up worst, then give a jab, cured!
