Anti lick strip

[Foxisle_crazy]

Got a free sample of an Anti lick strip in Your Dog.  http://www.nurturedpets.co.uk/

Its like one of those sticky fly papers, you’re supposed to wrap it round a hot spot or place the dog is licking at to deter it.  The ingredients are Cayenne pepper, oregano and clove oil.  Strangely they advertise it as an alternative to E collars?  It never occured to me that someone would shock their dog for something like that!!  😮

I don’t think i’ll use it ever, especially how it calls owners ‘pet parents’  :vomit: how american lol!!

Clove oil is an antiseptic but too strong can burn the skin
Cayenne pepper helps stop itching so they say :-\

oregano  is quote
‘a powerful bacteria and fungi killing properties, as well as being used as a painkiller and anti-inflammatory.’

so maybe it will do some good, if all else fails clove oil tastes :vomit:

Bev has always said to use clove oil in the past…. I praise doG that Fritz has never been a chewer  :yes:

Alternatively cover the area in penicillin – the one and only thing that I know a lot of owners find difficult to get their dogs to eat unless it is “hidden”  ;D
