Limit the risk of secondary skin infection and reduce evil surface yeast!

Mites commonly cause secondary infection before and during treatment. When you think about the horrible things going on beneath your dog’s skin, the bumps and lesions that go along with mange are understandable.

Treating your dog daily with a povidone iodine wash is the safest way to treat minor secondary infection without racing to the vet for antibiotics that may weaken the immune system.

  • Disinfects staph, yeast, and almost all common bacteria
  • Excellent for  hot spots, cuts, minor abrasions, and any other skin problem that either is infected or could become infected
  • Doesn’t sting or irritate the dog’s skin at all
  • Safe if dogs lick the area after cleaning
  • Easy to use
  • Fantastic disinfectant for all around first aid – it belongs in all human and pet first aid kits!
  • Concentrated. 8 oz bottle makes up to a gallon of solution

 “We wanted to let you know that we did the iodine, peroxide, and Mite Avenge treatment last night and Geena slept like a baby. She looks soooo much better today, and although her feet are sore, she is actually walking with a sping in her step again. There is no doubt that she is feeling better. I know we haven’t used the products but for 2 days, but the relief already provided has been a God-send. Thank you again!”

Janice and Michael P. and Geena, too!
Providone iodine wipe-downs have effectively resolved the skin infections of many dogs and prevented the need for antibiotics. Just look at the pictures of Buster’s feet! It is also a good preventative measure to stay ahead of potential infection.

Ingredients

Active Ingredients: Povodine Iodine 10%

Inactive Ingredients: Citric Acid, Glycerin, Sodium Citrate, Tween 80, Disodium Phosphate and Purified Water.

Use Instructions

To use:

  1. In a small container dilute 10% povidone iodine with water. Water it down to the color of iced tea. There is no scientific formula or need for exact proportions. (If you feel the need for a formula, start with 10 parts water to 1 part iodine.) If it comes up too light, just add a bit more of the iodine. If it’s a bit dark, add more water. Mix only what you’ll need.
  2. Soak a clean washcloth in the diluted povidone iodine solution. Gently wipe down the entire body. (Spraying does not work.) Pay special attention to sores, bumps, eruptions, flaky areas or areas where yeast is suspected. Treat the healthy skin too to help stop problems before they start.
  3. Rinse the washcloth, wring it out well and dip it in the diluted iodine again. Do one more pass just as before. Don’t worry about rinsing. Just pat your dog dry and apply praise liberally. Now get ready to do the Paw Dunk.
  4. Dunk the paws as follows: Put enough of the diluted povidone iodine into a cup or container just large enough to submerge a full paw in. Dunk each paw individually, submerging deep enough to cover the entire foot. Leave it covered for 15 seconds if you dog will let you. You want to keep each paw submerged long enough for the liquid to make its way up into the folds and crevices of the pads. If your dog will let you, part the pads open to allow the solution to penetrate deeply.
  5. Remove and pat dry. Do not ever allow moisture to remain on your dog’s feet.
It is important to do this disinfecting process every day. Twice a day if possible. If you have just done a Mite Avenge treatment, wait 3 hours before doing any wet treatment to allow Mite Avenge to do its job.

  1. juliezh1 –

    My 14 Golden had Ringworm throughout her body! She itched and scratched for yrs. This iodine diluted 1:10 cloth bath against the grain of her hair after cutting her hair down to 1 inch worked wonders! The itching came to a haul! I still use it periodically to keep my elderly dog clean because baths are to strenuous on her because she can’t stand up that long anymore. Wonderful product!
