Default Home Remedy For Shiny Coats And Rich Color

Found this posted on Doberman Hub.

I stumbled across this old receipe that I used to use. I am dragging it back out because REDS are so hard to keep a show coat on. Plus with the apple cider vinegar it is a great antioxidant.

I put it in a squeeze bottle and just squirt on a little at each feeding. Enjoy!

WITCHES BREW:
1 cup Flax seed oil (from health food store)
1 cup buckwheat honey
1 cup crude molasses
1 cup apple cider vinegar
Put 1 Tbsp. 2 x's daily in dogs food

This makes for lovely shiny coats. It also gets rid of dry flaky skin and enhances color in coats making them a richer deeper color.

Yes, but they'll be eating it, right? Unless there's a food fight (not that I'm ruling that out!) it should stay in their mouth. Until it doesn't.

hmm, might have to try it, i bet it tastes yummy. i bet if you give them a bath with it, it would work too, as long as you rinse it good.

Witches brew is "A powerful or terrifying concoction"

But it seems like quite a healthy one to me.
