author avatar Dr. Eric Berg 08/31/2023

Apple cider vinegar can be very beneficial for humans. But what about apple cider vinegar for dogs? 

Apple cider vinegar can help with everything from digestion to skin problems to joint pain. It's also a great natural flea and tick repellent. So, if you're looking for a more natural way to care for your dog, apple cider vinegar may be a good option for you.

It's also excellent for humans and helps with breaking down the nutrients of a keto diet. For those of you who are fasting it's an excellent choice in the morning because apple cider vinegar does not break a fast. But we are talking about the benefits for our furry friends in this article, not us.

Here are some of the benefits of apple cider vinegar for dogs:

1. Digestion: Apple cider vinegar can help to improve digestion and reduce stomach issues like bloating, gas, and diarrhea. Add a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar to your dog's water bowl each day.
