And it is sarcoptic mange....

It makes me laugh when we play fetch... he can only see straight ahead so if the ball goes out of his line of sight he basically runs in circles or random places looking for it. Poor little guy!!
ooo he has the bad kind. be very careful you don't get it yourself. its a pain to get rid of. make sure you are bleaching the crap out of everything in the house he touches on a regular basis.

i'd keep the plastic cone he has on now, and not worry about other ones. he'll adapt. they all do. its long enough to protect his ears against his feet scratching them
