My dog routinely gets ‘hot spots’ which are expensive to treat. What topicals or techniques can aid healing?

ritzi asked:


His fur is thick and he loves water. We shave the dog in the summer to allow the skin to dry after frequent swims. We also shave the dog when a hot sopt is found, but folds in his skin do not allow skin to dry well. Rubbing alcohol dries the spots out, but is painful for the dog (no doubt).
