ACV & dog conjunctivitis Recipe: I am thrilled to discover this site. We had our little dog at the vet today and paid $38.50 for antibiotic for her eye infection! The whole bill was $126.00 Canadian! I've read through everything I could find on this site but I can't find the recipe for ACV and conjunctivitis in dogs. Do you use it straight? Do they ingest it? Or does it just get rubbed in to their neck (back or front?) and for how long? I am anxious to try it as her poor little eye is crusted shut every hour or so and I've been bathing it with chamomile and saltwater for 2 days now. If ACV can really help her in an hour, I want to use it!

ACV has totally cleared up my dog's eyes.

My little dachshund mix has had problems with his left eye ever since he joined us last April. The vet prescribed a tube of medicine, but he fought me like the dickens every time I tried to apply it. I'm not sure any of it ever actually made it to his eye. I read here about massaging ACV into the back of the dog's neck for conjunctivitis and eye problems, and thought it sounded completely nuts. But I'm game for anything.

I keep some organic ACV in a small squeeze bottle, and I just squeezed some out onto a cotton ball, and used the cotton to massage the ACV into the back of his neck. After the first night, his eye looked like he'd never had any problems at all. He doesn't seem to mind the ACV, and it's a cheap, easy, and painless way to keep his eyes shining bright and free of eye boogers and stuff.
