I just wanted to share my experience of this. In mid March Scooby had some hot spots on his face and had scratched the top of his head until it bled and looked very sore.
My Vet prescribed some antibiotic steroid cream and said it could be due to any number of allergens. My groomer recommended Manuka Honey which is reputed to have antibacterial properties. I have been giving Scooby two teaspoons of strength 12 active honey since the end of March and he has had no more sore skin.
I have also gradually changed his diet over the same period (1 meal of Natures Menu and 1 meal of James Wellbeloved cereal free kibble per day).
I can't claim any miracle cure but just in case any members here are struggling with their Dog's skin problems, I thought I would post my experiences so far.
Scooby is passing two good stools a day, has no dermatitis, no dandruff and isn't scooting. He looks really good and seems very happy - he also loves the taste of the honey!
I'm really glad my groomer recommended Manuka Honey - what experiences of it have other members had?
