Trouble Spot Drying Paste - Canine and Cats - 5oz

• Speeds healing on wounds, hot spots, bites, and broken skin.
• Creates a protective barrier from flies and debris.
• Reduces inflammation, swelling, and itching.
• Humans love it for bites, stings, poison ivy, acne, and splinters!

• Gently clean any dirt or debris from treatment area. Flaky skin or scabs are ok. DO NOT pick off any existing scabs.
  
• With one hand, gently push back fur so that the area is exposed. With the other hand, use fingers to apply a coating of the paste to the hotspot as if spreading peanut butter on a piece of bread. Do not rub in. 
  
• Note: Try to avoid applying paste to fur. The paste is not harmful, though it will dry like a scab and require bathing or brushing to remove.
  
• Paste will dry to a near white shell. It is also effective if thinned out with water or witch hazel. Some breeds have coats that need a thinner viscosity to stick to skin.
  
• Avoid applying the paste into paws, on joints or in skin folds. The scab that forms is abrasive.
  
• Allow at least 2 days for skin cells to knit together under its protection. Use a wet cloth or water to remove.
  
• Reapply as needed until skin is completely healed.

NOTICE- PLEASE STOP AND READ BEFORE USING: 

• Discontinue use of medicated shampoos, topicals, or wipes especially those containing SODIUM LAUREL SULFATE, CHLORAHEXIDINE, COAL TAR, and SALYCILIC ACID. If using medicated shampoos, topicals, or wipes with these ingredients, we recommend waiting 3-5 days from last use to apply our powder and patch test to be safe. The powder is non-toxic but too alkaline for chemically irritated skin and may cause a reaction.
• Most commercially available shampoos have ingredients that dry out skin and impede healing. We recommend not using these.
• Avoid using on areas of skin treated with topical flea medications including under flea collars. The pesticides in these products often irritate the skin; combining with powder may cause a reaction.
• Some dogs with systemic yeast overgrowth may ooze after powder application. This is part of the normal healing process and will subside. Wipe the moisture and reapply fresh powder.
• Many pets find relief within 1-3 days. For those on anti-biotics and or steroids, or have otherwise been immune compromised, results and healing may take 1-2 weeks.
