One of the more common causes of yeast infections is because of an imbalance of "good bacteria" in the animal. The good bacteria keep the bad bacteria and yeasts in check. One of the most common causes of an upset in the "good bugs vs bad bugs" is having had the dog on antibiotics. Antibiotics kill the bad guys, but they also kill the good guys and the balance is frequently not restored.
Get a GOOD (unflavored-unsweetened) yogurt. Read the label and get the one with the greatest number of different bacteria in it. Give your dog a big heaping tablespoon with the food, twice a day for two weeks. Then drop down to one tablespoon three times a week.
The best yogurt I have found is Nancy's brand.
