Title: Mange Post by: southtexasff on August 19, 2012, 04:09:17 pm I searched on this site for it but couldn't find anything that would help me. I got a gyp that has some type of mange or mite that seems to be making her itch. I noticed she is scratching the side of her front legs till they are open sores. She seems to be loosing her hair on her but. She has a weird smell to her also. I got her kenneled with another gyp and she doesnt show any signs. Is it mange or a skin disorder? I have the dogs on a wooden deck in the kennels. I already wormed her with Ivomec. What kind of shampoo would be good to bathe her with? Ive only owned this dog for about a month.

Anytime some type of sore or skin problem puts off a noticeable odor its probably infected and will not be easy to catch up to if left untreated.

Title: Re: Mange Post by: tnhillbilly on August 19, 2012, 11:27:45 pm Burnt motor oil and sulfur works wonders and will make one slick as a ribbon. Used to put it on mine in the spring to help shed winter coat.
