I give dehydrated beef liver treats from trader joes. They are really inexpensive and are simply 100% beef liver no additives.

This is so sad looking! Mack LOVES getting his wrinkles cleaned, when he sees the baby wipes he comes right over! I would feel so bad if he hid everytime!!

Alaska LOVES the wrinkle cleaning, but not so much the brushing. Tank butts her out of the way if he's in line behind her to get brushed... She would rather give him her spot in that regard. Silly Bully's...

**UPDATE**
I have learned sooo much after joining this forum, and I am so GRATEFUL!!! In the last few months we have started Bindie on daily probiotics, started giving her healthy treats, and recently switched her food to a grain free potato free kibble... I am so happy to report that after only 3 days of 100% new food her face rope is yeast free!!! I have never seen her face look so good without be on antibiotics... (She has no swelling or redness in her rope.) I can't wait to see how she's doing after a month on the new food...
This is what we are feeding:
California Natural - Kangaroo and Red lentil
Merrick lamb lung training treats
2 Vetri-Mega probiotics a day

That's great to hear, I just switched Otis to that food as well, but we have been struggling with an ear infection (one reason why I changed his food) for about a month and a half now - 2 meds and 3 visits to the vets and still no better. Just had an allergy test done last trip and we are waiting for the results. I also googled Zymox and picked some up today, hoping this helps.
Otis's face looks great right now and I was thinking it was the food switch. (hoping anyway).
Glad to hear your baby is much better, I will look into the probiotics too.
For treats I feed Otis broccoli, apples and ice cubes with blueberries in them.
They are messy, outside or kitchen floor treat for sure.
Thank you so much for the infoI will check out the SAMs club version next time I am there... I take acidophilus daily too, since I am not a yogurt fan BLEH! I'm sure it's a better deal than the Trader Joes version I currently take...
Read recently the Pearls do a better job of actually GETTING into the gut therefore are
can be properly utilized, some probiotics evidently get dissolved BEFORE getting where
they need to be and aren't effective then. Let us know her progress & good luck!

All great advice above, I agree with Kazzy220 's advice, Fromms Beef is a great quality food. We use plain unsweetened yogurt in their food, 2 Tbsp in their kibble once a day, apple cider vinegar in their drinking water once a day, there are a lot of benefits to using apple cider vinegar, we also give natural snacks like cut up apples, bananas, strawberries, blueberries, green beans, cheese strings only once in a while, and a hard boiled egg once a week.

Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider is known around the world as Mother Natureās miracle medicine, a powerful weapon in the war against aging and disease that is more effective than many high-priced prescription drugs. When God created this fruit He designed it be a food and a medicine!
Apple cider vinegar (ACV) is golden liquid concentrated with the healthy goodness of apples. It contains more than 30 important nutrients, 12 minerals, over 6 vitamins, essential acids and several enzymes. Moreover, it has a large dose of pectin for a healthy heart, and thus, healthy as a whole.
Many vitamins, minerals and other nutrients and substances are available in ACV to improve the health of your dog. ACV can provide them with enzymes and important minerals, such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, sulfur, chlorine,
phosphorus, iron, silicon and other trace minerals. The vitamins contained in ACV are bioflavonoids (vitamin P), beta-carotene (precursor to vitamin A), vitamin C, E, B1, B2, and B6. Tannins from the crushed cell walls of fresh apples as well as malic acid, tartaric acid, propionic acid, acetic acid and pectin (fiber) are also contained in ACV.
ACV is cheap, easy to use and it really benefits our health in numerous ways. ACV can benefit both people and their pets. It is antibacterial and anti-fungal and gives the immune system a good boost. As a high potassium electrolyte balancer, it remineralizes the body and helps normalizethe bloodās alkaline acid balance.ACV is the natural king of skin remedies. It is wonderful for itching and scratching pets as well as a superb skin and hair conditioner. Good old apple cider vinegar either straight or diluted 50/50 with water can be applied directly to the affected area and allowed to dry. It will kill bacteria on hot spots, eliminate dandruff, rejuvenate hair, skin and help sweeten and balance the pH levels in the body. When giving your dpg a bath, shampoo, rinse, then apply ACV either straight or diluted, followed by rinsing with water. Notice, any residue shampoo will be washed out and you will feel and see an increased softness and sheen to the coat.
Apple cider vinegar is a powerful detoxifying and purifying agent. It breaks down fatty, mucous and phlegm deposits within the body. By breaking down these substances it improves the health and function of the vital organs, such as the kidneys, bladder and liver, by preventing excessively alkaline urine. Put a tablespoon of ACV in your dogās drinking water every day and you will no longer have those brown spots in your lawn from the dogās urine.
This powerful potion also promotes digestion, assimilation and elimination, all the while neutralizing any toxic substances that enter the body. Cider vinegar has been found to ..neutralize any harmful bacteria that may be found in certain foods. While dogs and cats do not have to worry too much about the bacteria in raw meat, if YOU are in doubt, you can pour a little Apple Cider Vinegar over thier raw meal.
Cider vinegar can also be beneficial for symptoms such as tooth decay and splitting of your dogās toenails, which can be symptoms of potassium deficiency. Potassium is essential for the replacement of worn-out tissues within the body. This mineral is also important to soft tissue repair, as calcium is to the bones and teeth which makes it a wonderful supplement for senior dogs.
Tests have proven that when potassium, in the form of cider vinegar is fed to livestock their appearance improves and their stamina increases.
Cider vinegar is thought to be beneficial in the treatment of arthritis, as a supplement added to your petās daily water supply (or poured over the food) or with compresses soaked in hot vinegar applied directly to the joints. It is also thought to be helpful when used to treat allergies, osteoporosis, cancer, candida, high cholesterol, constipation, muscle cramps, colitis, diabetes, diarrhea, depression, dizziness, ear discharge, eczema, fatigue, kidney stones, kidney and bladder problems, metabolism, and stiff joints.
The supplementation of ACV has been known to naturally remove red tear stains from the inside out. It is also used by many to prevent fleas when used in a rinse for the dogās coat.
Recently, Dr. Louis Ducarre of Geneva, Switzerland, author of the fairly new book,Natural Cures, Natural Life states that when mixed with honey, apple cider becomes potent enough to cure cancer, heart disease and other deadly ailments .
Natural apple cider vinegar is found in health food stores. It should be a rich amber color with the āmotherā quite visible as sentiment on the bottom. The strength of vinegar is important. All varieties of vinegar contain about 4 to 7 percent acetic acid, with 5 percent being the most common amount. Acetic acid is what gives vinegar its tart and sour taste.
There is nothing beneficial about commercial distilled vinegars except for pickling, cleaning and disinfection āthey have no health value!
