This really works. I tried that on my old 17 years old cat a few months ago. He had irritations in his ears and debris that look like ear mites. After about two weeks of treatment, he had very clear ears. Poor boy, it was going on for few years.

[@adrianamara6063]

Hi Dr Jones. Thank you once again! I never miss your videos. You asked for feedback, so I just wanted to share my experience with coconut oil. I happened to discover coconut oil several weeks ago and I LOVE it. After I apply it my doggie stays flea-free for 2-3 days. Then I just re-apply it. It gives me peace of mind that it's non-toxic and not harmful when he licks it off. In fact, it's even nutritious lol ! It's absorbed into his skin and hair after about an hour, so he doesn't stay oily. And he smells nice and coconutty. I hadn't tried spraying it, but I will try it now. I've been scooping it out with my fingers and rubbing it directly onto his skin. (I spoon some out of the jar and put into a separate container for this) I kind of go under his hair. It actually seems to melt on his skin, so I don't heat it. This also gives him a nice massage, which he likes. So that's my experience with coconut oil which is TOTALLY POSITIVE. Thanks again! LOVE your channel.❤❤❤❤🐾🐾🐾

I only use D Earth outside around edges of patio. That stuff is so fine and dangerous to put on animals or inside home. OMG! Nightmare! I learned the hard way.years ago. Vacuumed for a year and dust still all over the place. It's such a fine powder, but so abrasive. Dangerous for lungs and eyes. I did try DE on pets once and it's makes a horrible mess on the fur. I would never put on pets again like I tried years. Scary! Just little around patio causes bugs to be belly up overnight from the sharpness of DE. So please don't use on pets. So easy to scratch eyeballs and lungs. I've only boughten DE in food grade so I took in water and drank and wrecked my insides after one time. Thought I would have to call ambulance. Torture! I would never have pet ingest. I'm glad I was the guinee pig to learn. And don't use dusty litter. OMG! That is evil too. Poor cats face close to litter. Then they lick to clean an breathe even more off their fur. Respiratory issues for sweethearts. And noooo baking soda in litter. That burns the entire digestive system and they die after suffering. No fragrance either. I do like coconut oil for non toxic. Gonna grab a lot of dirt though.

Then I just scoop some out of the new container with my fingers and apply it directly to his skin and rub it in, sort of running my fingers under his hair. (It melts at skin temperature) It doesn't get on the hair as much this way. And, after an hour or so, it's absorbed into the skin and hair, so he doesn't remain oily. But it still repels fleas. And he smells slightly coconutty lol. Anyway, that"s what has been working for me. My pup is medium size and short-haired. Good luck. I hope you have success with coconut oil.

Hello, I haven't tried it yet (and I will), but I wonder if the coconut oil could be doubly effective if combined with garlic oil? What do you think? I've been reading that garlic in small doses, when eaten by the dogs daily, can have a repellent effect after about a week. And they make garlic sprays for the yard to repel mosquitos, fleas, tick, and other bugs. So if it works both outside and internally, why can't garlic be sprayed on the dog? Would love to hear your answer. Thanks.

I have been massaging in the coconut oil/castor oil mix daily and use the witch hazel, lemon grass, cedarwood oil to spray base of tail and on his harness when we go outside for walks (tried spraying it on a bandana but don't think he likes it that close to his nose - I think it smells great!) He loves the coconut oil massages - lines up every morning without calling him. It dissolves readily into the hair and skin - no oily mess if you massage it in down to the skin...I keep it in a jar not a sprayer.

Cool something I have on hand I've been giving my pup a little in his food to make his kibble more appealing. But I have a side question is coconut oil good for treating ear infections in dogs? If so will it work as a spoonful of coconut oil in a solid state orally or would it need to be melted down to liquid to put it in his ears. I ask because the breeders said to give a spoonful of coconut oil but as I looked up this method others melt it to liquid to put in ears

Coconut oil will melt at body temperature.

definitely helps, ive used it a couple times for my dog anytime I saw she had build up or redness. Coco oil is naturally antimicrobial so it will help kill the infection, I get some on a q tip and gently put in ear (where it will get in the ear without poking the q tip too far in) and it will melt :)

[@adrianamara6063]

I didn"t read that particular study but I know it's the lauric acid in coconut oil that kills fleas. It dissolves their outer shell. Lauric acid is found in pure, natural coconut oil. In fact, the less it's processed the better it works. It's advised to purchase organic, cold pressed, virgin coconut oil. It doesn't need to be mixed w anything. That's what I use and I've found it to be an excellent flea repellent.

Dr. Andrew, Doesn't liquid, otherwise known as fractionated coconut oil ( I'm talking about the kind you buy) have the lauric acid removed? Isn't it the lauric acid that is so beneficial in the ways we are using coconut oil here in your videos?I just wanted to clarify this because I see some are suggesting to use the liquid form of coconut oil that can be readily purchased. It's usually used as a carrier oil for humans in massage therapy. It does not contain lauric acid. Just asking for clarification, please. Thank you. ❤

[@adrianescalante8313]

I second this question!!

[@jennadaigle7508]

I checked and found out that fractionated (liquid) coconut oil DOES NOT contain lauric acid, which is the ingredient that kills & repels fleas. So ONLY natural, unaltered cocomut oil will work to kill / repel fleas. To make fractionated (liquid) coconut oil all the lauric acid, which has a high melting point, is REMOVED, in order for the oil to stay liquid. What's left are MCT oils such as capric and capeilic acids, which DO NOT kill or repel fleas. So bottom line is that for flea killing/repelling ONLY natural, unaltered (unmanufactured) coconut oil is effective. But really, it liquifies on your fingertips and on your dog's skin anyway. Just scoop it out and rub it directly onto his/her skin. This also provides a nice doggie massage.
