Inter digital cysts
Submitted by admin on April 20, 2010 - 5:26pmDoes anyone have a good remedy for treating these? In our new home the grass and my five-year-old bulldog's feet do NOT get along and she develops cysts between her toes. Currently, I give her benedryl to keep her from itching (and licking it). Any ointments or home remedies or suggestions out there?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

A lot cheaper too when it works as it usually does.
Just put about 2 gallons of warm water in the tub add 1 cup Clorox and stand the dog in it for about 5 minutes. Do not rinse but just towel dry with a white towel. This will not hurt the dog if it licks the feet.
treatment for cysts
Take 1/2 cup of Cholox to a gallon of water and soak his foot for about 5 minutes, twice a day. Be careful not to let your bullie splash or walk around with a wet foot, because this can bleach color from clothes and rugs. This is very effective in treatment the cysts.

Everyone has their own remedy for this. I have learned that preparation H will take the swelling down. But you must be careful to not let the dog lick it off. I use baby socks on the foot to keep them from licking.
Another remedy is to soak the foot in Mesingil Douche.
This is the one the vet told me about. Others say soak in vinegar and water.
I would be willing to bet that there is something on Bulldogsworld about this also, although I have not looked. (Shame on me!)
I hope this helps!!
