I went to the boutique in front of the groom shop I worked at and bought the Raw medallions, Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil, and Solid Gold Seameal. The owner is going to order the Life Exxtension for me as well. I then went to the store and bought Sesame Seed Oil and Low Fat Plain Yogurt (making sure it had Live & Active Cultures!). Here is what Yodi will be eating for Breakfast & dinner for the next forever unless it doesn't work. lol

-One Raw Medallion (thawed for 15 seconds in the microwave)
-One Tablespoon of plain yogurt
-1/2 teaspoon of sesame oil
-1/2 teaspoon salmon oil
-1/8 teaspoon seameal

and the Life Exxtension will be added once it comes in. I'm just convinced not to do the Mitaban dip now after reading and researching and finding all of the horrid side effects it can have!

I think you are making a good choice except that I would not thaw the raw in the microwave. I would either just thaw it in the fridge overnite or in warm water. I have an older collie who had a bought with demodex mites. Collies can't be treated with the medications and it did resolve on it's own and I put her on raw shortly after and it hasn't come back. I hope this works for you - I know many people have been successful switching to raw. You may want to look into a prey model raw diet as well. Good luck!
