Title: Source for Thornit powder
Post by: tritonx on December 27, 2020, 11:47:08 PM
Is Thornit powder still being made and available anywhere you know of? All the old posts about it here are many years old. Until now, I've had a relative in Scotland order it there and then mail it over to me. The bottles last a long time, so I haven't had to order any for a few years. I have a dog owner neighbour with two adorable terriers with floppy ears and she mentioned that one of them gets ear infections, so I said I would send her a contact address. But now I find there's not much mention of Thornit powder online. The Amazon.ca site says it not available. Is it still available in the UK?

It is still on sale here and this is there web page  www.thornitearpowder.shop

I have a memory that one time you could only get it direct from Norfolk company - but a lot of online pets store seem to stock it.  The web page mentions US sales reviews also. Once on the site click on there face book icon gives a bit more detail.

Thanks - I have saved that link for future reference as I am sure what I have in the cupboard is well out of date now :)

@Joules - can we add this to the Thornit locked thread at the top? As the links on there for Thornit don't work now?

Have updated that thread  ;)

I can't see it on Amazon, but there are a few options on eBay

Thanks for the update. I've contacted the site to ask if they ship to Canada. If not, I'll get my brother-in-law to order it directly from the site and mail it to me. I didn't know it could go out of date. Does it? My bottle is at least 3 years old, maybe more.

I am not sure but the one I have is older than 8 years, so I will buy a new one once pup is confirmed :) (28ish more days to go to see if the mating was successful, not that I am counting  :shades: )

Thanks for that - I still have my pepper pot but when I lost my last dog in August this year I threw everything out that I thought I wouldn't need as I wasn't going to get another dog  :shades: but just look at my ticker  :005:

I don't think it really goes out of date - I've used the same bottle for probably about 10 years!

I used to buy it from Amazon, but I just did a search and couldn't find any on there  >:(

Ah yes, I saw that. I meant I couldn't see anything under the Thornit name - no doubt this is the same stuff.

That's still a bargain!
