It’s important to understand puppies commonly have yeast blooms during stressful times such going to a new home and leaving their mother and siblings.
Far too often, when dogs are diagnosed with allergies, they are actually suffering from an overgrowth of yeast.
When your pet’s body is in balance, yeast is an excellent source of beta-glucan, which is a powerful antioxidant that helps ward off skin damage, repair skin damage and protect your skin.
Yeast infections are an overgrowth of yeast caused by fungal infection. If yeast overgrowth is not treated, the dog will likely develop additional health problems triggered by the infection. Apple cider vinegar and yogurt are both inexpensive cures easy to administer at home. Apple cider vinegar retards the growth of "bad" bacteria while yogurt with lactobacillus acidophilus is a type of probiotic that will fortify your dog's body with "good" bacteria.
Before beginning, understand that a yeast infection will limit your dog's quality of life. Always consult a vet to establish whether your home remedy is the most appropriate option. Make an appointment with your vet if the home remedy he recommends does not eliminate your pet's yeast infection. The vet will likely prescribe some medications to treat and cure his infection.

Your Definitive Probiotics Checklist
It is important that you make sure to buy a Probiotic with the following, so that you do not waste money on ineffective products. Ensure your Probiotic has:
High Volumes of CFUs
CFUs are colony-forming units – the number of living microbes in the probiotics. We recommend 2+ Billion CFU..
Vital Ingredients Ensure the probiotic follows the above recommended list of ingredients, to ensure effectiveness and safety.
Additional Nutrients Opt for a probiotic that supports overall health with a balance of vitamins such as A and C, as well as minerals such as Manganese. These are important minerals that can help the overall health of your dog. Probiotics can be fragile. Look for storage instructions and check this probiotic is formulated to contain live bacteria for its full life.
Assessing vomiting/diarrhea...
If your puppy’s suffering from either of these nasties, the first thing to rule out is intestinal parasites. When puppies go home, stress is a factor. It lowers immune systems and makes them very suspectible to common parasites from drinking from lakes and puddles; contact with dogs who are carriers of parasites (Giardia or Coccidia). Easily treatable with daily pumpkin and some time to let their system fight it off. If behaviour is good, & eating and drinking well... let your puppies immune system build and fight. Most dogs, could be tested and over half would test positive for either of these and not show ANY symptoms- as they have built a good immune system. If lethargy, not eating or drinking.... easy anti-parasitical can be found at the vet. (Panacur)
Diet is a key component in building a good immune system with your pet. Always consider all natural - no filler foods with probiotic and proper vitamins.
If parasites are not ruled out- they are not the cause vomiting/diarrhea, your pooch has probably just eaten or licked something he shouldn’t have. Nine times out of 10 what they’ve consumed comes back out again.
Treatment: Continue to offer water, and provide food if your puppy asks for it but that’s less essential than keeping them hydrated. After 12 hours straight (vomiting) or days of diarrhea, take your dog to your veterinarian if he’s not acting well. Your veterinarian can provide you with meds to help.
