I use it for any skin issues and it usually clears them up. You can also get a tube of NuStock from the feedstore... it works good for rashes and hot spots.

Have you swapped to anything new out of the ordinary recently, could be having a reaction to something it’s around or ingesting if it’s reoccurring...

Squeal, Clindamycin is used for gram positive and gram negative skin infections. Also for deep infections like puncture wounds. If it doesn't help the skin condition, antibiotics won't help at all.

Is it the beginning of yeast or hotspots from all this rain lately? A few of mine started like that, then went to hotspots and rash. Tuna tin spray and or athletes foot powder help, and ketacanizole(sorry bout spelling) orally

Careful with tea tree oil, too much can be toxic to dogs. Demodectic mange can make skin red and itchy also. Steroids will make the mange worse, whether it's demodex or sarcoptic mange.

Thanks for all the advice, hopefully this helps others learn quicker than me. Ive treated lots of rashes in the past successfully but this one has been really hard. After AB's internal and external didnt work in a week, i started treating yeast and fungus internally and externally, after 10 days of that not helping I started using NU-stock topically and they seem better so Im continuing with that.
Its on 2 dogs in my yard 1 old bmc and my cd/dogo. The dogo just started a few weeks ago with all the rain, the bmcs started a few months ago from a puncture wound in her cheek but didnt get bad until all this rain.
Im going to try Nustock for another week and if that doesnt go from helping to curing it I will try more of the above mentioned - thanks again
