The number one treatment for Demodectic mange is Ivermectin. Rescues see a lot of this and it is successfully treated.
Just because your pup has it does not mean he is immuno-suppressed.
I would trust the dermatologist and his/her recommendations. I am happy to hear they are doing a full work up prior to starting treatment.
Once they give you a plan of action, ask a lot of questions and do some reading on the web so that you fully understand what is going on. That way should there be any adverse reactions, you will be aware! |
