Classic's Lime Sulfur Dip (16 oz) - Extra Strength Formula - Safe Solution for Dog, Cat, Puppy, Kitten, Horse

The PROS:First of all, this stuff works!!! I have been battling a serious skin yeast infection in my dog’s for YEARS!!! They have black dots, aka fungus, embedded in their skin. Yeast infections can cause alopecia, aka hair/fur thinning or cause bald spots. Remember that the skin is the body‘s largest organ. So if the skin is showing signs is problems then again almost bet your money that your dog has internal issues as well. Issues like yeast infections cause low-immune system issues. I have brother & sister twin Toy Rat Terriers. My girl was having serious dental problems. She I had to get several teeth polled and even though I had her teeth cleaned regularly she is highly sensitive to plaque on her teeth. The smallest amount of plaque on her teeth would cause her pain which will in turn cause her teeth to chatter. The first time I gave my dogs and all natural anti-bacterial, anti-fungal bath soak I noticed that the black spots in their skin were coming out. I also noticed that my dogs were very relaxed afterwards they both took a very heavy nap at an odd time of the day. It was obvious that the bath was gave them relief. Both of my dogs had very stinky breath in addition to my girls very sensitive plaque issue and other dental problems. The next day after I gave them that first bass, both of their stinky-breath was completely gone and my girl was not chattering. So I gave my dogs a bath for skin issues and it cleared up their dental problems. It was a unmistakable, unintended, happy side-effect of the bath. That really opened my eyes to how interconnected all of the issues with our bodies are. So you might think you have a small problem like a yeast infection, but really it’s way more serious than that. Now, the all natural back that I gave them did help and it did work, but it wasn’t doing enough fast enough. The Lime Sulphur is way more intense. It kills stuff very well like yeast & fungus. And I’ve read a lot of other reviews about this product where people talk about things like ringworm, other worms and parasites. Every review I read said that it works for those types of issues as well.MAKE SURE YOU READ THE DIRECTIONS!!!!This product is meant to be used as like a sponge bath. I take my dog and I put him in a collapsible basin that I have. You could also use a Storage container, or a bucket depending on the size of your dog. You have to DILUTE this product with water!!! You mix 4oz of Lime Sulphur with 1 WHOLE GALLON of WATER!!!! If you got the 16oz bottle of Lime Sulphur then you pour out 1/4 of the solution into a gallon bottle of water and shake it up!!! Then I take SOME of that solution and pour it into the bottom my collapsible basin until it’s maybe 1/4-1/2” deep. You don’t need a lot!! It’s very potent!!! AFTER I give my dog a normal bath and rinse all the soap off, then I put my dog in the basin and I take either a loofah or a sponge or a rag and I soak it and squeeze the solution from the loofah onto his skin and try and rub it in. I often shave my dog before I do this so it really soaks into his skin!!! Then I just keep soaking the diluted lime sulfur solution into the Lissa and squeeze it back onto his body and I just keep doing that for like 10 to 15 minutes. Once you’ve done that before at least 10 minutes, take your dog out of the bath WITHOUT RINSING them off and put them into a towel and PAT them dry! Just let them air dry after that!!! I’m not sure if some people use this as an actual dip where you fill up a whole basin with the solution and then let your dogs soak in it. Personally, I think it’s too strong for that. If you left your dog in it for too long it might start to eat away at their skin, I honestly don’t know. I use this as a RINSE ONLY!!! Remember, you are not supposed to rinse the lime sulfur off of your dog when you’re done. It’s supposed to soak into their skin. As soon as my dog comes out of the bath and I start to rub him with a towel after he’s dry, there is so much black fungus dots and dead skin that comes off of him it’s gross. Unfortunately, doing this one is not enough. You’re supposed to do this like every few days for a few weeks or until there’s no sign of your issue anymore.The CONS:1. This contains Sulphur!!! Sulfur smells like rotten eggs and farts mixed together, lol. So when you do this, make sure you keep your bathroom door closed and your exhaust fan on or open a window!!! I usually do this late at night when my family is asleep so that by morning the smell is gone. However, with so many reviews talking about the horrible stench, it wasn’t actually as bad as I thought it was going to be. I mean it smelled like I thought it was going to smell but the smell wasn’t as overwhelming as I anticipated. However, I’m not overly sensitive to smells so for those of you that or you might want to wear a nose plug or a face mask.2. This stuff can burn if you or your dog have any open cuts or wounds. It’s recommended that you wear gloves when you do this. I personally don’t and I’ve noticed that any cuts I have on my hands do sting when the Lime Sulphur is on my hands. So just keep that in mind if your dog has any wounds of any kind.3. This solution can absolutely stain your dogs hair/fur if they have white or very light hair! Although, my dog is mainly black he does has white legs and straight out of the bath his for maybe tinged yellow, but after a few days it’s seems to be white again. If your dog needs the solution, staining their hair or fur should honestly be the least of your worries though. Health it’s way more important than physical appearance especially for an animal.4. DO NOT WEAR ANY JEWELRY while using this solution!!! I have sterling silver bracelets and anklets that I never take off. So I use the solution on my dog a couple weeks ago and when I was done I realized that all of my silver bracelets were black with a rainbow hue and my silver anklets with black with gold. I seriously thought that I completely ruined them. I tried soaking them in vinegar and baking soda and use a jewelry cleaner that I have on hand and it did absolutely nothing. Then I found a bottle of my mom‘s TARN-X and I Figured I’d give it a try. The TARN-X worked like a miracle!!! It quickly turned all my silver jewelry back to silver. However, I do feel like it took some of the shine away permanently. Like it took the top shiny coating away. But regardless, I am so happy that I was able to fix my jewelry even if they aren’t quite as shiny. So for anyone who turned their jewelry black from using Lime Sulphur…buy TARN-X. For those of you that have not ruined your jewelry, make sure you take it off before using this product!!! Even if you wear gloves, you could still get some solution inside of your gloves where you may be wearing rings or bracelets. I’m not 100% sure what the solution may do to real gold, but I would not risk it. I would imagine it’s going to do the exact same thing that it did to the silver. Even if it doesn’t turn it black, the solution could very easily turn it yellow or orange, because it’s a dark orange color.So wthat’s my review, I know it’s super long. I hope this helps someone!!!

I mean yeah it smells like sulfur, what do you expect? But it worked great! One treatment for my small cat, and my second I mixed up a "tiny" batch to spot-coat because she has just ONE really bad spot where it just won't go away, and no need to completely cover her.But all the other things I tried to use, didn't seem to help. This worked immediately. Aside from that super tough spot, which still hasn't fully gone away. Might use one more "spot coat" on it as it does seem to help when I do that.

My Bassett Hound was itching and scratching all of the time, his hair was falling out plus he stunk so bad you couldn't stand to be around him, i had spent over $600.00 at the vets and they did nothing for him, then i found this and thought what have i got to lose? and after one rinse with this he stopped itching and scratching within 24 hours, i waited 7 days and gave him another rinse, now his hair is growing back and he is like his "old self again" ....ps. your dog does need to be where he can stay out side until he is dry, it is kind of messy but it works great.

I bought a few products to treat kitty at home, this by far is the most effective. Redness and infections clears in 12-14 hour span. My babies ear looks soo much better after only one use!It's not a great smell, it's sulfur, but it definitely fights off skin irritation and ringworm.Also!!!! I bought my cat a necklace pillow/cone, don't let your pet lick this! Pay attention to them and maybe invest in some cbd to calm animal after treatment is over so they can nap and heal.

Being careful not to get it in places too sensitive, sulfur smell diminishes with a little drying time. I petted kitten until she dried to be sure she didn’t try to lick. Once each week after a wash, it isn’t easy but it has helped her rest. I am also using the cream daily, she’s getting relief and healing and the comfort of being petted. I used it myself the next evening, it did not stain me, only darkened her white fur areas til dry. It helped me too

Walking dandruff gone on puppy 5 months old. Nothing else worked.

Works well. Exactly what I expected.
