Hello
« on: September 21, 2011, 01:19:09 PM »
Hi, I'm Kate and I have a manic 13 week working cocker called Max. I have been lurking for a while now and learnt loads of really useful stuff so thought it time I braved the boards!!

Max is going through a tough time - I picked him up at 10 weeks and he had tummy problems and fleas - got these sorted and he is poorly again this time with what the vet thinks is Fox Mange. I am finding it really hard seeing my poor puppy in so much discomfort - will post on a different board for advice on this.

Will try and post some photos soon - not finding it easy to get any good ones as he is always on the go!!

Hi and welcome.
My little Maisy had fox mange, vets didn't pick it up at 1st so she was on all sorts of steriods and anti biotics for about a month, saw another vet in the same practice he instantley diagnosed fox mange, gave me saw advocate and she was back to normal in about a week. x
