Bentley has demodex AGAIN Bentley went in for his yearly checkup and has demodex really bad AGAIN!! We are currently in the process of blood work and research to figure out why an otherwise healthy dog keeps becoming infected with an immune system mite. Does anyone know of a canine HIV or AIDS virus that causes immune system compromises? That's a lot of what this sounds like but you never know what we'll find or come up with. My heart breaks that he's itching still and can't beat this for good. Poor boy.
Prayers are very appreciated especially since we have been struggling financially since our son was born and just dropped over $300 for Bentley's shots and skin tests and blood work. We'll be fine, just takes away from some of the things we are trying so hard to save for. I'm working again as a para in summer school and sub teaching some, but not enough that we have extra money. Hoping we can pin point this problem and beat it and not end up in a never ending pit of no answers and money to find out what this is. Poor Bentley. |
