Hi all
I'm going to try and reply to all posts with this reply. Thank you all for posting and your kind thoughts. Sophie does not have puppies and has never been bred. From what I have heard from several vets and research demodectic mange is not contagious. The vet did not scrape her skin because she wanted to deal with the mastitis first. More than likely she had a false pregnancy and that is why she got mastitis. I could take a picture of her skin but it wouldn't show anything. she is not red, scaly, crusty, losing hair or have patches of the rash. It looks like a small area of cradle cap and she has dandruff a lot. The main reason the vet said mange I think is because of the greasy fur and itchiness. But she also had a flea allergy which is why I was hoping it was allergies. We got rid of the fleas too. I have seen demodectic mange and to me it doesn't look like it, but I thought well maybe she had a milder case. But to me, it looks like dry skin. I am just so scared because she is my baby and I am terrified of something happening to her.
