DOG SCABS AND dandruff

[mwormser]

Hello again, I have tried everything to rid Jet of these horrible scabs. Nothing is working. His scabs are covering his body and no Vet can figure it out. It a bacterial infection but…Besides the 4 vets we have tested for cancer, yeast, fungus, allergies, mites, fleas, stool test, thyroid and allergy. We have tried:
Simplicef
Thyroid
Doxycyclcline
Prednisone
Cephalexin
Cipro
Cortisone shampoo
4% chlorahexidine shampoo and betadyne
diet of fish, nothing else
colostrum
zinc zinpro
fish oil 4 per day
Nutrived OFA granules
raw food diet
6 months treatment from a natural Eastern Vet
bought all new bedding

Something is causing his scabs. It started 2 years old now he is 12. Nothing is working. He does get 1 1/2 teaspoon of glucosimine / chondroitin every day X2 for his hips but has been getting this since 1 year old.

Anyone? Maybe it's time to realize this will just not go away no matter what I do.

We had the same problem with our 3 year old lab mix dog. First we changed her food to eliminate corn and wheat from her diet. The Vet prescribed a 2% lime sulfur dip that we used once a week for a month.
During lime/sulfur treatment she was on 500mg of Cephalexin 2 times a day. After the lime/sulfur treatment ended we bath her in Virbac
Etiderm shampoo once a week. We also had allergy test run and found
she was allergic to common things found in a normal house. She receives
a monthly allergy shot for those allergies. Her coat cleared up and has been clear now for 6 months. Good luck with resolving you pets issues.
This can be a costly and time consuming process.
