| keep scissors away from me I have been waiting to take Gypsy to the groomers cause she has been getting dips for mites. Her "bangs" had gotten so long they stayed in her eyes and I am not always good at keeping up in a band. (Laziness or time constraints take your pick.) So I decided to shorten her bangs. Unfortunately too short. Hope it grows back fast. She acts happy it is out of her eyes and the rest of the top can go up. Poor thing.

| It will grow back quick. Chachi had to have those dips for mites and he ended up getting sick from it. The chemicals they use are very strong. Chachi had to have 6 dips and after the 5th one we said no more because he was getting diahrea and vomiting after them. Our vet was really mad at us but we didnt care. just watch your dog after those dips

| She threw up after the first one and they adj the strength. She has had no prob since. She has had one negative scrape so we need 1 more to stop them. I am as tired of them as she is.

| Well two dipps arent bad. our Vet never checked Chachi to see if he still had the mites after each dip. He just kept insisting on more dips. We stopped it and Chachi hasnt had any more problems since

| She has had several dips, she needs 1 more negative scrape. I lost count of the number of dips, though my hubby will be happy to tell you the cost of vet bills. She had 1 scraping that had mites, 1 that had a dead mite then 1 with no mites.

| Oh i know all about the cost of those dips. My Vet charged $45 a dip and Chachi had 5 of them. i am glad too hear it sounds like Gypsey has gotten rid of them though. They are very hard to get rid of
