What Is It ?
Skin Care for Dogs is an all natural topical lotion that provides fast relief for skin irritations, hot spots, and dry skin conditions. It treats and relieves quickly, while moisturizing your dog's skin.   - 4 oz. bottle

How Does It Work?
Skin Care for Dogs is effective on skin problems including hot spots because it uses the following unique 4 stage system:
1. Natural disinfectants (Eucalyptus Oil) quickly kills the infection throughout the dermal layers.
2. A skin protectant (Allantoin) promotes rapid tissue healing.
3. Olive Oil discourages your pet from biting and scratching the irritated area.
4. Natural analgesics (Menthol), quickly relieve the irritating sensation, providing quick soothing relief for your pet.
Skin Care for Dogs is the most technologically advanced comprehensive and effective system ever developed to treat canine skin problems including "hot spots". 

This product uses the PENtoCORE® penetration system and it is covered by patent nos. 5,460,821; 5,645,854; 5,853,751; with others pending.

A hot spot is the nickname given to a condition called pyotraumatic dermatitis. A hot spot consists of a bacterial infection (usually staphylococcus intermedius) that develops and rapidly spreads in the skin. A hot spot will be warm to the touch, painful to your dog and will emit pus and smell badly. Hair will usually fall out from the infected area. Because this condition is so painful and irritating the dog will usually bite and scratch the area further spreading the infection. Treatment should be started as soon as possible to prevent the infection from becoming systemic.

Reduces Biting and Licking While Treating Infection
Dogs often bite or lick infected areas. In many cases, such as hot spots and lick granuloma, the licking and chewing is detrimental and prevents healing or spreads the infection. Skin Care for Dogs helps eliminate this problem. Its menthol base tastes badly to most dogs and deters biting and licking. Consequently, wounds and infections heal faster.

CLINICAL STUDIES PROVE EFFECTIVENESS.....

A survey of 106 canine owners with dogs having chronic hot spot conditions showed that Skin Care for Dogs improved the hot spot condition within 3 days for 92% of the dogs. After 7 days of use, Skin Care for Dogs improved the hot spot condition for 98% of the dogs.

An in vitro clinical study which consisted of 2 separate trials (performed by an independent micro- biological testing facility) proved that Skin Care for Dogs killed 99.9% of the Staphylococcus intermedius bacteria (the "hot spot" causing bacteria) within 1 minute of contact time.

Hot Spots can be triggered by allergies. While it is recommended to use Skin Care to clear up the skin infection, seeking treatment for the allergy itself is also suggested. This can reduce or eliminate hot spot outbreaks in some dogs. If you think your dog's hot spot problem is due to allergies contact your vet. Also, check out our Allergy Care Page for more information.

Customer Reviews:
My 5 year-old golden retriever had his first hot spot recently, and Dr. Dog skin care was the only thing that stopped him from itching. It also helped the hot spot to heal faster than any of the medication and sprays given to us by the vet. Since then, I've also used it on ear irriations (edge of outer ear only--not inside!) and for his footpads when they're irritated by allergies. I'm now online to order another bottle! I highly recommend this product. -Kristen, UT

We have an 8 yr old female Wire Fox Terrier. She's seen a couple of doctors, tried several types of medications, skin creams, medicated baths, frequent baths, you name it, it was done. 3 days after using Dr. Dog, we were amazed. We had never seen any product work so well and so fast. Usually she runs when its time to treat her hot spots but now, she lays on her back like a big ham waiting for the miracle to happen. Your products are of outstanding quality. I LOVE MY DOG! Dr. Dog Skin Care...is the best! M.D. Howe, Texas

Boomer and I have been fighting dry skin patches for years. It was so bad that he didn't have hair on his right flank. The vet kept giving us very expensive antibiotics, I decided that I wanted something topical since antibiotics were not doing the trick. I saw Dr. Dog on the internet, bought two bottles as a lark. I never believed it would work. After four days, the dry skin is coming off in sheets almost like a peeling sunburn. Underneath is beautiful pink, healthy skin. Thank you so much.

Nothing works faster or better.. this product is the very best out there! We have kennels and approx 15 dogs.. Dr Dog Skin Care works on any type of skin irritation or hot spot, the quick results are great! Well worth the cost.. I won't be without it. Lynne - IL

This Doctor Dog skin Care for Dogs is the best! I have tried many items for my Golden Retriever which he had itching, scabs created from the itching and dry skin areas. Once I put this on him, he was so calm and relaxed and stopped itching and it takes the scab away right away. Apply it for a few days after and the spot is all cleared up. I would like to know if you could find a way to to make this product in a spray for his whole coat. The first part of Spring and Fall he gets affected all over and to use this cream on a 115lb dog even though you only need a little bit, it gets low quick. See what you can do. Otherwise anyone who is debating on whether to try this product or not, do not hesitate - it really does work! Thank you for the skin care.

The Skin Care for Dogs works on my dog. It is the only product I have found that stops the itch...I hated for my dog to spend her nights scratching and itching and licking, because I knew she was miserable (not to mention our sleepless nights). But thanks to the Skin Care for Dogs product we don't have these problems anymore. G. R. Summerfield, Florida

My nine year old lab mix presented with a hot spot on his left flank almost overnight. It was raw and weeping and the size of my hand. With a little research and the testimonials here at Doctor Dog, how could I go wrong with your product. I am proud to say your product did the job. After 3 days, the skin was pink and dry and my dogs spirit was lifted. Thank you for a great product. I will use your site for all my pet needs.

Not that I'm endorsing use of the product in any way other than intended, but my husband and I have used it on our own insect bites. My husband also uses it to help control dandruff. It works.

Dog: Collie Age: 7 Purchased Product: 12/6/10 Been Using Product For: 4 days My collie Roxie recently got a bad rash of hot spots. I noticed it about a month ago starting on her chest area since she was losing hair. I tried bathing her in oatmeal shampoo, and even tried cleaning her hot spots daily with various antiseptics. Then, I went on a business trip for two weeks and after I picked her up the hot spots were very bad. They had spread from her chest area into her arm pits, her front legs, and up her neck. She also had some noticeable hot spot growth starting on her sides and her tummy. I used the product for two days on Roxie and saw some mild improvement. Then, I decided I needed to get more agressive and shaved my collie completely. It exposed a lot more hot spots than I had been able to find by combing through her fur and clipping around the hot spots. I felt really bad as an owner and I could tell she was in pain and suffering, constantly licking the hot spots or biting at them. After two more days of using the product with her fur shaved there has been a huge improvement in her skin coloration. Her skin has gone from beat red in the affected areas to a light pink. It's not at a normal color yet, but it has helped a lot and I have noticed she is sleeping peacefully now. I will continue the treatment for another week and it looks like this product is working wonders for my dog. Another added benefit is after application of the Dr. Dog, Roxie gets super zoomies (probably from the menthol) and races around the house like a mad woman! Thanks so much for this awesome product. It has made a world of difference!

My dog seems to be allergic to it :(

HEALED! HEALED! HEALED! as the televangelists might say. :-) The dog is healed, and the hot spot is gone, gone, gone! Hallelujah! In just a matter of a few weeks, this gentle but effective lotion did everything it says it does: provides antiseptic healing, discourages scratching, and provides a natural substrate for skin and hair rejuvenation. And, it does so at a fraction of the cost of most veterinarian formulas. I was also pleased with the way the product worked with our dog's skin. It "blended in" well, with gentle massage, and "wore" well, so her coat didn't look as if she'd had a playdate with a grease vat. We actually do not have much of a flea problem here, but ticks are a regular nuisance. I found that the tick bites and resultant irritation were causing problems for our dog. Now I routinely apply Dr. Dog's Hot Spot Treatment whenever I remove a tick. Preventative medicine. It works! Try it! Thanks!

We were at our wits end with our dog, Bobber's, hot spot. The medication and spray that we got from the vet wasn't working. 3 days after using Dr. Dog's skin care for dogs, the hot spot is dry and his hair is growing back!! He is once again, the most beautiful dog in the world. Thank you Dr. Dog ... for a great product that really works.

This is the ONLY thing that works on my Chow Chows when they have a hot spot. I love this product! It is so worth the money and it saves a trip to the vet's office :)

The hot spot treatment is GREAT! No dog should leave home with out it. Works quickly. Don I

This is the only product that will cure the HOT SPOT on my Border Collie WINNIE. When Winnie gets nervous the SPOT gets worse! We can't do without Doctor Dog. Winnie runs and hides when she smells it but it works every time! Thank you so much! MK in the OZARKS!

I bought this product for my german shepherd "Cowboy" who recently developed hot spots. After just a couple of applications the hot spots dried out and the incessant itching stopped. Unlike other products, this didn't seem to sting and he didn't lick it off. Thanks a million!!!!!

Its a miracle!! Skin Care for Dogs is great!! Now his coat is beautiful and has been free of any skin problems. N. B. - Florida
