mosquito repellent for dogs
Nothing comes up on a search, but anyone have ideas?? One of our small dogs has pretty thin fur and Alaska has a lot of mosquitos.

Something was bugging my memory (not a mosquito) so I looked it up. Too much or too little vitamin B-6 causes nerve damage. So it is important to take the right amount.
Older humans often have too little, and I personally have found it helpful to take as a supplement.

That's about 44-90 mg/lb.
