Seems to be a lot of horse dung involved.
It's free, and if your 'cure' doesn't work you can imply the person didn't try hard enough. Same reason why most 'magic potions' include hard to achieve steps (steal church parchments, estract the liver of a dog, etc.).
How are these "hard to achieve"?
This really confuses me. Why does the dog need to be red? Also, if someone ever tested it, it should be obvious to not work...
Try it for yourself - you will see people staring at you but you will know you are invisible!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Maybe an old phrase meaning "rabid dog" or "raged dog". Rabies was probably orders of magnitude more common of an occurrence back then (which is non-existent in most Western countries right now).
You'd have to attach the parchment with the words to the rabid dog.... then attack the rabid dog with a sword, gun or any other weapon.
This seems inadvisable ;)
