    Wow, they are REALLY adorable!! They look like possibly boxer/pit mixes. I love their markings. Good luck at the vet, I hope you'll be able to find them homes soon!

    Well, although it may cost more for treatment, and to determine if there is an immune system problem, it's not too bad. I mean, this is the least serious type of mange, right? It can be cleared up in a few months without spreading to all of the other dogs in the household. Hopefully, that is all that they will find.

    I work with a lady who does boxer rescue, and she has mentioned many times how often the puppies or dogs she deals with have mange, and whatever they do clears it up, but she just has to be really careful not to let the affected dogs near the others.

    We're back from the vets -- bill wasn't as bad as I expected.

    They both have demodex and tape worms. I am treating them both -- it's a 3 day dosage for both. Dublin weighs 21 pounds and Ireland (Clodagh) weighs 22 pounds.

    I'm still not sure what I'm going to do with them today.

    I am so happy you were able to get them in to see the Vet so quickly.
    You have such a kind heart for animals. I'll pray for inspiration to find
    a safe place for these puppies. They are soooo cute.

    I don't have much cash but could send something. Every little bit would help
    you with the costs.
