huntmark 18 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 I know my dog is not a lurcher but I'm going to ask you lads for your opinion. My young cocker cross has picked up mange. I have had her in the vets about four times in the last six weeks or so. She has had injections and antibiotics but it seems to bday taking forever. Any idea how long it normally takes to treat. It's mainly on her back but not a massive area Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lurcher330 2,297 Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Benzyl benzoate is the stuff i was thinking of,dilute with something like baby lotion and cover the dog with it then wash the dog in about a week with a good flea and tick shampoo should do the trick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
