Mary, Thanks for that suggestion of the apple cider vinegar, witch hazel and vicks vapor rub. I have a Maltese mix and I noticed one black spot on her skin around her shoulder area. I'm not sure if it's what's described in this article but I cleaned it as you suggested and noticed an immediate change in the spot. I will keep cleaning it daily until it's gone.....if it doesn't go away completely or more appear, we'll be heading to the vet to make sure she's ok. I'm wondering if I should make the change in her dog food, she and her brother currently eat Grain Free Merrick. Tammy

Vix vapour rub? Good lord, why would you want to use petroleum on your best friend. The ACV and witch hazel is great, but VVR? Please noooo
