Demodex in Dogs | Demodicosis

[@roselucht4583]

I used organic Neem oil 1 part and 10 parts Organic pure sweet almond oil. I rub into my dogs skin wherever needed. I did this every day for a week, gave her a good bath. It kills the mites 100%! always works, a no fail ! It worked for my small dog, in the 1:10 but you can also use it Neem 1 part : Sweet Almond oil 4 parts.

[@Vargas9215]

Where can I find these oils?

[@joecwhitney21]

Thinking about adopting a 1 year old dog that has this. Thanks for the explanation and helping me understand.

[@DrLera]

Glad it was helpful, best of luck with the adoption!

[@cathykuehl3440]

What a sweet puppy! Bulldogs are so cute.

[@DrLera]

They truly are!

[@GlennLandry-dd2ux]

Does dinovite work?

[@jesusgomez3805]

Use raw honey people. It suffocates the mites. Also, try to feed your dog greek yogurt or cottage cheese, which will help your dogs immune system by a lot. You can also buy a spray bottle and every 2 days groom your dog with an apple cider vinegar, water mix, with a little(table spoon) of dawn dish soap. Your welcome.

Very informative. Thank you for sharing your insight!

Was prescribed Nexgard for demodex, had 3 chewables at 1 per month…it went away within the first 30 days!

[@ejercitodejehova6979]

Is nexguard good to kill mites ? And where can I get it ? Is your dog healed now ?

[@RuNutty]

@@ejercitodejehova6979 I had to go to the vet and they did a scrape test on the skin…they prescribed nexgard

[@RuNutty]

@@ejercitodejehova6979 but yea, it got rid of the mites quick and fast!! Been fully healed now

[@RuNutty]

@@ejercitodejehova6979 if you can get some Bravecto too that works good as well

[@hunny4real238]

Which ones

[@hugoh.9694]

😁 My pup was diagnosed with this today. I had suspected it for a while. Finally did a skin scraping today. Mine is a 1 year old American Bully weighing in at 61 pounds. My vet prescribed ivermectin byt only at 0.6 cc by mouth daily for only 10 days. He combined this with 500mg of amoxicillin twice daily for the same 10 days and also the triz medicated shampoo baths. I hope this resolves it as I had heard that a longer course of ivermectin was normally required.

[@theoneitgirl5699]

did it work

[@hugoh.9694]

@@theoneitgirl5699 Yeah. It definitely worked. The only thing is my vet kept adding another 10 days of treatment. In the end the treatment should go on for about 10 weeks (according to what I have read). My vet having me come back in every 10 days just added additional unecessarry exam fees. My pup seems to have one little bald patch still but I'll know for sure that it's all clear in the Spring when his new coat comes in all over again. He has improved a LOT. Ivermectin is a super interesting medication. It is antiviral, antibacterial, anti parasitic AND enhances the dog's microbiome. After about 3 follow-ups with my vet and seeing continued improvement each time, I chose to extend my pup's treatment on my own using the same dosing and ivermectin and ending the repeated "follow-up" check ups. As it turns out, I already had this drug in my home in decent quantities. I had purchased it either on line or at TSC. The amoxicillin was only prescribed and only administered for the first 10 days. If I had it to do over again, I would forego the amoxicillin all together. It's unnecessary AND it's harmful to the pup's natural gut microbiome. It causes stomach upset and diarrhea.

@the one it girl use( happy jack mange) is available at tractor supply $20 apply on the spot continue for 3 days. Wash all bedding and kennel. In one week itching stop. Two week scratches is gone and coat regrowth.

[@HeavenGoode]

@@hugoh.9694I’m sorry they made you do all that. all you need is special medicated shampoo from Amazon and some nexguard chewables. It’s basically an auto immune disorder. The vet definitely dragged it.

[@HeavenGoode]

@@Leo-bp5nsI love that stuff too along with our nexguard chewables if the immune system can’t fight it

I have a American Staffordshire he is 4 months old just turned 4 months old he has this mange I seen the vet she.. have him the table and the wash I have to do twice a week let it sit on him for 10 minutes then wash it off ..... My question is and I forgot to ask is how do I do his face with it ???

[@Humanism592]

I give nexgard spectra every month. No side effects in my dog and helps

[@marinocarreon-padilla1808]

Is this contagious to other dogs ??

[@DrLera]

No, demodectic mange is not contagious to other animals or humans. Demodex mites are transmitted to puppies from their mother during the first few days of life.

[@laurenanderson7330]

@@DrLera my dogs are not puppies but they just came back from boarding for 6 months. The vet thinks they have demodex. So it’s possible in adulthood too right?

[@maximusralte777]

[@isabellawewer]

We adopted a puppy about 7weeks old from the shelter and my vet said he has this. She told me to not get him close to my other dogs because it could be contagious and for me to use prescribed shampoo 2x a week. She also gave him one little tablet for fleas and ticks. I heard its not contagious, but worried because she said it was and for me to make sure I was my hands before I pet my other dogs. My other dogs are almost 2 years old is that why?

[@RSTI191]

Did your other dogs contract it? My wife and I contemplating rescuing a boxer that has it. We have other dogs..

[@maximusralte777]

My dog has this, my vet told me that it very contagious and even humans can contract it

Hello I have 6 2week old puppy with mange

[@meglupo18]

My American bulldog has it bad, I’m pretty sure that’s what this is all over her. And now our Pyrenees has scratches and bumps on his perineal area. *sigh* ringworm has been a reoccurring issue but this doesn’t look like that. I dipped her in sulpher and lime and covering it in lotrimin ultra twice a day. I’ll also do some kind of bath. Theyre already taking bravecto. I’m just concerning my kid who has a very low immune system will be susceptible and end up with scabies 😖 .

[@DrLera]

Demodex and scabies are two differe t organisms. If your dog has demodex you shouldn't be concerned at all about scabies

[@Leo-bp5ns]

Use happy jack mange. Cost $20 at tractor supply. In one week all the itch is gone and the skin begins to recover. Wash daily for three days then wash the kennel and bedding. After the second week the scratch and mites is gone hair regrow.

[@lenovotablet3431]

M Hi dr mi pup was diagnosed with this hi only prescribed only nexgard is this ok???????????

Shampoo with benzoyl peroxide

[@BeetsArt]

stay away from nexguard. I was going to give my dog nexgaurd vet prescribed, but I read a lot of negative things about it. A friend of mine put her dog on it and she ended up having permanent siezures. Don't do it. Use neem oil and coconut oil. 1 part neem, 10 parts coconut. Use it every other day on dogs effected area and wash the dog with mild baby or dog shampoo- unscented. It should start working soon. I also have my dog on a multivitamin for immunity. I think it's called vet for bulldogs? I also have him on a fish supplement- to grow hair back, same brand and I'm starting to see the results. Hope this helps. Ivermectin works wonders too. Small doses dependant on weight.

[@bghancock84]

All every kind of drugs are safe only if the doses are correct. Lots of people read in internet and start to treat their pets by themselves which is totally wrong. I have been tru demodic mange and Neem oil and coconut oil didn't work, and my dog was in early, early stage. Sense we start to use Nexgard spectra + advocate and skin shampoo things turn out great. At least for us it worked.

Your detached laughter to nothing said that is funny is off putting; call it dry humor or the like it obstructs the point you are making. No disrespect, but total respect for what you are attempting to do, but it just seems the line of communication can become clearer without jokes not linked to what you have said.
