Wonderful news! Thanks for sharing.
If it happens again, you can probably dilute the 5ml in water before dosing to make it easier for your dog to take. Maybe 5ml of Apple Cider Vinegar and 30 ml of water...

Hi I have cane corso girl 2 yo and same problem since yesterday. Peeing often small quantities, constant urge, a bit bloody pee sometimes so I mixed 2 tbsp yogurt, 2 tbsp ACV amd 1 tbsp peanut butter ...she is eating now. I also put diluted ACV (50:50) with water on her scruff and soaked her feet in ACV undiluted this morning. She is already better not peeing so often.

The wonderful Theresa from Minneapolis, MN has been helping pet owners and their beloved pets around the world on Earth Clinic since 2013.
About Theresa
Theresa from Minneapolis was born and raised in the inner city, always wishing she had been raised on a farm.
Her love for creatures great and small began at an early age, starting with caterpillars - which continues to this day, along with an interest in all insects and 'creepy crawlies'.
Theresa's interest in pet health started with a bird keeping hobby at age 14, where she learned from another hobbyist that the simple addition of Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) in a bird's drinking water kept fungal infections away; she was able to share this with her avian vet who in turn prescribed it to her own clients; Theresa was surprised to learn that she could teach her vet a thing or two. This important lesson - that each of us can be a teacher - was a turning point for Theresa, and fueled her quest for the knowledge held in lore, and remedies passed by word of mouth. That quest for knowledge continues to this day, as new and old remedies alike are explored. She may not have experience with a particular issue, but she will research it to the best of her ability and share what she finds freely, in the hopes that you can heal or improve your pet's health.

A few thoughts for you. Read the pages on ACV for dosing ideas. I tend to go heavy and hide it in canned tuna, while others have smaller doses in water. Chronic infections make me think your girl is constantly being exposed to something that disagrees with her. It may be helpful to have a log or journal and record everything she takes by mouth - all treats, chewies, and human food. Consider the grain free diet you are feeding may also be the culprit and consider changing protiens. So if you are feeding a chicken based diet try a beef based diet and give it 6 weeks while you record results. Also consider on a rotating basis alkalizing her drinking water with baking soda, and also Ted's Borax protocol for dogs - another water treatment. Finally consider her conformation - if she has an 'inny' vulva this may be something she has to out grow and innies usually resolve with the first heat cycle. Please keep us posted!

A must have is Dr Pitcairn's (American Veterinarian) book(he will walk your through a lot of questions on feeding and illness), even the old version is priceless. As long as there is nothing medically wrong you should see a lot of improvements just with a diet change almost immediately, please get support for this and be patient. A vet you can talk to that is not trying to sell you their commercial dog food is so important, a holistic one is priceless but not so easy to find let alone afford. Good luck and do keep posting here, I find lots of great ideas and resources here.
