EHS Mange puppy Reeves up for adoption.wmv

Meet Reeves, an adorable 4 month old Shepherd mix who came into the care of the Edmonton Humane Society in the middle of February at just 2 months old after he was found a stray wandering the Alexis Reserve near Gunn, Alberta. He had a severe case of Sarcoptic Mange on his right side. It is a highly contagious skin disease caused by parasitic mites. Reeves’ case was so bad, that when EHS medical staff members first examined him a chunk of his skin fell right off!

How do dogs get mange?

So my Vet said my dog has mange and gave me medicine to treat it a few weeks ago. It’s been getting better but I just want to know how dogs get mange? Does anyone know? So I can prevent it next time!!

what kind of mange? demodex or sarcoptic? if its demodex, that is a mite that is normally present in the dogs skin but during times of stress or when the immune system is low, the mites become too much for the dogs system to control. if its sarcoptic mange that is contagious to people and other dogs.


Please help!! My cats have pretty bad mange. Need home remedy known to be safe & effective for cats! Thanks!?

Recently became aware that my cats itching was not b/c of fleas (tons of treatment) but from mange mites! I cannot afford a trip to the vet and am also weary of chemicals used to treat mites. I have found a number of mite remedies but all have been for dogs with no side notes indicating they are safe for cats. Please help if you have any information or experience.

Homeopathic Sulphur, either in drinking water or if the cat will take tablets, bath the affected area with warm water to ease the irritation

Could this be demodectic Mange??

Hi,

I have a 4 year old Boxer who has broke out in red rashes/spots on his feet, the front of his legs, under his chin on his neck, and around his ear. He has broken out like this before, usually in the summer, but never this bad. He has no hair on the places and they are raw and scabby.

The veterinarian that we have been seeing for about two years now says that it is not demodectic mange. He has told us that the ones on his feet and neck are hot spots and the one around his ear was a bacteria infection that leaked out from his ear. But it seems like no matter what medication we put on the places, they continue to get worse, never better.

When Teej (the boxer) was around six months old, our old veterinarian told us that he had demodectic mange. She diagnosed this from a skin scraping she took and gave us the lyme dip, an oatmeal shampoo, and some other medication. She even showed me the small mange mites on the microscope (I worked for her at the time). And with the medication she gave him, the small spots that he had on his muzzle then seemed to clear up.

I am confused. Our new vet seems to think that once we treated the demodectic mange mites when he was a puppy, that they would never return. But from all the research I have done, I’m starting to think he could be wrong….

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what these spots could be? Or any suggestions for them that we could try at home?? I have spent a lot of money on vet bills trying to get rid of them and nothing seems to be working.

Please help!!!

Dont doubt yourself you saw it the first time, is it the same as before? if so just go to another vet or convince yours to do a scrape

I think I may have gotten mange from my foster kittens, what should it look like??

It doesn’t look like the discriptions necessarily. Its round red scaley spots that have flakey dry skin in the middle and then it turns into a scab in the middle. Some of the spots or about the size of a bic pen. I thought mange from cats would affect me in smaller bump like rash?

go to this website.. http://www.vetinfo4dogs.com/dsmange.html#Sarcoptic%20mange%20and%20people

The dog species of sarcoptic mange can TEMPORARILY infect humans. Usually the itchiness from this lasts about three weeks, or less. The mite can’t live in humans, so it dies. If the dog remains in the household and remains infected it can continue to give its owners new mites, though — so the itching can last longer because there is a constant new supply of mites. Cortisones are sometimes used to reduce the inflammation and itchiness. It is not necessary to kill the mites because the are going to die, anyway.

The human species of sarcoptic mange is contagious between people and is a problem in settings like nursing homes where it can spread pretty rapidly through the resident population in some cases. It is often referred to as scabies.

Ivermectin for demodectic mange?

My dog was diagnosed with demodectic mange and was perscribed ivercide he was put at .2 for a week then .3 and the dose will keep getting higher until all the mange is gone, but the more i research its seems ivercide is a terrible thing but then i read other articles that say it has changed since then and i just dont know is it safe for me to give him this daily?

He is a 10 month old American Pitbull Terrier.

Oh – bully breeds and demodex!! Adolescence in the most common time for this to show up as they can have reduced immunity so often the best treatment is time (and a raw diet for optimum health)

The spot on treatment Advocate®/Advantage multi® is also listed for mites – ear, sarcoptic and demodectic.
