How Can Dairy Goats Help Dogs and Cats?

Dairy goats, like the Alpine and Saanen, can help provide some of the best natural pet care products around! How? The milk from these goats can be used in handmade flea-free soaps and powders.

It’s miserable for an animal to have fleas. Fleas are pesky little creatures that can be difficult to exterminate. It’s bad enough to see them on your beloved pet, watching your pet scratch in misery, but if those pesky little creatures intrude your dwelling place then you really have trouble! With the help of dairy goats, your pets can be flea-free and you can live comfortably without the fear of intrusion from fleas.

Handmade goat milk soap, combined with a blend of flea repellent essential oils, makes a wonderful pet care soap for dogs. Essential oils such as mint, eucalyptus and lavender give this soap a strong fragrance, but it’s mild enough to use weekly, if you shampoo your dog that often. This dog soap remains effective until the fragrance is gone. The breed of your dog, its activity level and whether it lives inside or outside will all determine the length of effectiveness of this soap.

It’s very important to know that this flea-free soap should never be used on pregnant and/or seizure prone dogs, due to the essential oils component.

Cats have very thin skin and are highly sensitive to essential oils. Due to the essential oils, this soap should never be used on cats.

Pregnant, seizure prone dogs and cats have another goat milk soap alternative for maintaining cleanliness, called "Au Natural" soap. This goat milk soap is extremely mild and fragrance-free. This soap has no residual effects and kills fleas immediately during a bath.

Dairy goats, also, provide the milk used in making handmade natural flea-free dog powders. This natural dog powder is the same blend of goat milk soap and flea repellent essential oils as the dog soap, only carried on a powder base of diatomaceous earth. Diatomaceous earth is a remarkable, all-natural product made from tiny fossilized water plants. This natural powder kills fleas on contact and repels any new fleas. This product is mild enough to use everyday on your dog(s), if you’d like. Due to the essential oils, this flea-free powder should never be used on cats and pregnant or seizure prone dogs.

There is an alternative to commercial pet care products filled with all kinds of chemicals. These chemicals may be harmful to your pet without your knowledge. Take care of your pet’s hair and skin, naturally, with flea-free goat milk soaps and flea-free goat milk powder products. A clean and flea-free pet is a happy pet!
