Canine yeast infection is caused by Candida Albicans, it is the same yeast that infects human being. One of the home remedies you could try is spraying the affected area with a solution made of four parts apple cider vinegar and six parts water three times daily.

Maintaining a good balanced diet helps cure yeast that develops. A few drops of apple cider vinegar in his drinking water. Also treat his feet with a sulfur based shampoo twice a week. Treatment can last a few weeks because the fungi reproduces quickly. A visit to the vet if these things are not working won't hurt.

Yeast is an organism which loves warm, moist places. Mix a solution of 16 cups water, one cup of hydrogen peroxide, and one or two cups of white vinegar. Submerge your dog's feet in this solution, then pat dry, don't rinse. Do this several times a day. Try boosting your dog's immune system by adding probiotics to his diet.

Wipe the feet with unscented, alcohol-free baby wipes. If his feet don't clear up, or they get worse, see a veterinarian to get the proper medications to treat the infection.
