I received my yorkie from a breeder in Nov. Since then she has had a wide range of problems from hypogylcemia 3 days after getting her and I was doing what the breeder told me. I think she left out that she was also eating soft food and not just hard. I almost lost her. She aslso has had a sneeze from day one though she could have alleriges since whe live in Louisiana. But she also has dermodex (sp?) mange on her chin and been on medicine (Ivermectin) for about 5 weeks. Now she has a bald spot on her side and scratches alot. In brushing her and combing her I find minut white flakes. She goes to the vet wed but i wonder if she has dog lice. I thought that I may not have gotten all her shampoo out. I have no other pets in the house so I'm at aloss how she could have that any encouraging help.
