as you all know maggie has mange for quite a few months now. She started off with it on her legs, feet and chest...it started to get better and then it got really bad.

this was her at her worst

i tried just the suplimenting and changing her diet and giving her special baths..but it didnt work for her...so i gave in and tried the ivermectin and its working really well....maybe that was a bad choice but i dont feel so right now...the nu stock didnt work for her either...i only used one jar but didnt use the second because i didnt feel the hassle of putting it on her was worth it :shrug: still trying to convince my parengts to buy the neem shampoo(who knew convincing them to buy a $12 shampoo would be so hard :mad: ) guess i'll just have to say i need the money for something else....ugh i need a job!!
anywayz she's making great improvement, her face is completely black again and the hair on the rest of her body is starting to grow back!

who knew a dog who killed cats in her young years would cuddle with a cat in her old age :confused:

That is great news and she is looking awesome. My parent's puppy had mange on her head (she got it from the mother) and it's clearing up nicely. They started her on the meds soon and got her a special shampoo and spray and it's working well.

She must have demodectic mange right? That can be a battle to overcome sometimes. She is looking great! I bet she is feeling a lot better too. Keep up the good work! :D
