My sister has a four year old rat terrier that is constantly having "yeast
infections" in ears and on stomach. She has tried yeast -free food diets,
specialty dog foods, cortizone shots, antibiotics, and many
countless/expensive trips to the vet. The diet gives temporary relief for
only six weeks. This has been an ongoing problem for about a year.
Any advice would be appreciated. The dog is suffering and needs help.

try giving odor-free garlic capsules, and you might consider kefir -
the kind you ferment yourself.

I was just thinking about this today for my dog. There's a product
called Threelac made by Global Health Trax. It's marketed for humans
and is recommended highly by people who have tried it (including those
on yeast NG's, cancer Ng's, etc). I'll be purchasing it for my sister
in law who has chronic yeast problems. I have not tried it myself nor
do I know anyone personally who has, but the testimonials are numerous,
widespread, and dramatic. For humans, it's not even necessary to be on
a total yeast free diet while taking Threelac, and it's supposed to work
quickly. It is sold thru distributor (and directly from Global Health
Trax in San Diego, CA) so just do a search on Threelac, and you'll find
lot's of info plus sites it can be ordered from. They carry a money
back guarantee. I called one of those sites today, and was told you can
give it to your dog as well at 1/2 dose of what a human gets. I'll
probably be purchasing it soon for my dog.

Good luck.
