I'm new with a question

Hi,
I'm from Ontario and want to ask a question about coconut oil for allergies and itching and was wondering if someone could direct me to a thread where this has already been discussed. I don't want to tie up board space with something that already exists. My dog is a 6 year old Lab and Border Collie and we have been dealing with skin allergies for a long time. Is there a thread for coconut oil. Thank you in advance.
Margene

Margene,we did discuss the uses of coconut-oil at one time,but I don't remember when or where,I am sure someone else will come along shortly and help out.
I myself,used it for toe-nail fungus and it worked great.

Hi, Margene. Welcome to the board!

If you look along the top darker brown menu line near the top of the page, you'll see a search button. If you click on it, a dialogue box will come up and you can type in coconut oil as your search parameter and a lot of threads will come up. I remembered one that was specifically about coconut oil and allergies and here's a link to that one: Coconut oil for dogs and cats

Most of the other threads were topics where coconut oil just came up in the discussion, but if you read through them you may find more information.

Hope that helps!
