EquiShield CK shampoo is the best product that has controlle
From UndisclosedComments about EquiShield CK Shampoo, 16oz BottleEquishield CK shampoo is the best thing that has ever worked for my Maltese. She got a skin condition for some unknown reason and the vet prescribed this shampoo and the condition was controlled. Unfortunately at the moment the product is not being obtained here and they prescribed others that did not have the same effectiveness. Doing a search on the internet I found Vet Rx Direct and they had the shampoo I was looking for available, I love this store because it has a great variety of products for pets, at a great price and delivery is fast. In addition, I have the opportunity to have it sent to me in a period of time that I want. I am super pleased because in this way I can have the peace of mind of having the product available. Thanks a lot... -

I have reordered to have on hand when needed for my alpacas.
From Vermontville, MIComments about EquiShield CKWe had a chronic fungal & bacterial infection on the foot of one of our Alpacas. MSU Vets diagnosed the condition and prescribed Equishield CK Spray and Salve, and most importantly the proper environmental care to allow the product to clear the infection. For fast, effective healing of Alpaca fungal foot infections commonly called "dew poison" the alpaca needs to be in a dry, clean stall with Pine Pellet bedding to allow the product to work. Simply providing a rubber mat in the stall allows for re-infection - must have the dry bedding and when treated twice daily with proper environment the foot healed within a few weeks!! -
Great product, good price

How does it look? How does it apply onto the skin? Consistency? For ringworm??
-
The consistency and look of the product will vary because it is available in the form of a spray, salve, shampoo and wipes. The spray will come in liquid form in a spray bottle for application. The salve will be thicker and more cream/ointment-like for consistency. The shampoo will be more fluid than the salve but not a liquid like the spray, it will have to be lathered into the area and washed off for each application.
