There is evidence that in dogs, Neem oil can help with fleas, ticks, intestinal parasites and mange mites.
According to Ayurvedic medicine, Neem oil improves the clinical signs of skin disorders.
Neem oil can be considered as effective and is beneficial for dogs with atopic dermatitis.
For a period of 3 weeks, the dogs daily received application with Neem oil (n = 9) or vehicle (n = 8).
The extra improvement caused by the application of Neem oil was significant.

Neem is one of nature’s most powerful medicines acting as an insect repellent as well as being a great anti-viral, anti-oxidant and fantastic for skin and oral health.
Neem can be applied to the skin of your dog in oil form by way of a spray or shampoo.
In the case of dogs, you can add a extra tablespoon of the Neem (plus emulsifier) to Neem and Coconut Shampoo in a jug of warm water to enhance the shampoo and then massage it into the coat, leave it there for 10 to 15 minutes then rinse.
However, it is not recommended to use it neat if the skin is broken.
Neem oil has a unique smell which is not liked by everyone, so it is best mixed with a scented Neem shampoo.
Due to the essential oil content this is not suitable for cats.
Neem and Coconut Pet Shampoo 250ml has a soothing formula to help pets with itchy or sensitive skin conditions.
It is also very good if your beloved four legged friend is suffering with skin lesions.
Neem can be used all year round if required to help with those pets that suffer from skin conditions.
