My Buddy, My Dog Jackson Blue

Meet My Dog, Jackson Blue!
Shoebox puppy he was at first, just a sleepy little love. Then, when he recovered from the teen-aged girls he'd been hanging with, my dog Jackson was my little puppycat. Sweet, but all mouthy biting loving. Four and a half years later, Jackson Blue still expresses love by pretending to bite my hand.
Then we hit the Tasmanian Devil stage hard. For a while, I thought my little puppycat was delivered straight from hell!
Now he is a good dog, a wonderful dog, a little character!
Ok then.

Dog Skin Problems
My Allergic Boy, Jackson Blue
My sweet little puppycat turned out to be allergic to flea bites. This ultimately caused a secondary skin infection and lowered his immune system's ability to function. Everthing was making the dog miserable; and each problem had to be fixed.
The fleas had to go, antibiotics treated the infection, and healthy dog food helped him recover.
I've tried it all - Frontline, flea bath, oil in his diet, expensive dog food. My boy is allergic to flea bites says the vet.
I have focused lately on getting his skin healthier. I mix an egg with his dry food, half cooked from the microwave, otherwise it is too gross. Also am brewing my own cedar-cide by boiling cedar chips in water for about an hour. It agrees with his skin and adds a bit of oily sheen. Much better than his usual dry skin. The fleas will avoid the stuff.by jumping off when they make contact. I don't know if it kills them or not.
I have been cooking for Jackson a couple of months and adding Brewer's Yeast. The flea problem is still not solved, but Jackson is healthier, bright eyed and playful.
