your dog probably has demodex or sarcoptic mange or severe infections filled with yeast. Yeast will give off a horrible unbearable smell, but the only way to heal the infection IS to give medicated baths daily and to be on antibiotics and to use an allergy food and to continue to do testing and skin scrapes to determine the cause and months and months and months of treatment to get rid of whatever fungus or parasite is causing the skin irritations and the smell.
if you didn't want all of this you should never have taken that poor baby into your home. rescuing a dog isn't always easy or cheap and it's always always a lot of learning and hard work to rehab them from whatever s**t their previous owners put them through. if you cannot take care of her and make her skin problems treated then you really should get her back to the rescue so they can find her a better suited home that is willing to put in the money, time and work for caring and treating her. it's not her fault she smells and it's not fair to her for you to have brought her into your life if you don't have the time and energy to give her all your love and care. |
