There is two different forms of mange. Sarcpotic Mange, which is scabies and is contageous (sp?) to humans and dogs, and Demodectic Mange which isn't contageous . We are right now treating our bloodhound for Demodectic. I would recommend researching on the web as others have said I found a lot of info on both forms when I was looking around. Hope your pup gets better soon.
