And I aint getting into a debate with ANYONE concerning the merits of feeding tripe, or not, on a regular basis. It's great for dogs' coats, FACT lol 6 Quote Link to post

sandymere 8,263 Posted September 26, 2019 Report Share Posted September 26, 2019 Se what vets says. For general info treatments that contain isoxazoline should work on both types of mange, the active ingredients in some flea tablets. 3 Quote Link to post

Atb bill My brother took on a terrier pup he felt sorry for when working at a house, owner said he didn’t want it anymore (10 weeks old ) anyway the poor thing was covered in mange and no doubt it was stress that brought it on, ivermectin was the only thing that would keep it at bay until even that stopped working. Terrier was put to sleep at 3 year old as he couldn’t watch the poor things skin turn to one massive scab then crack and bleed. A fcuking horrible condition that is very hard to get rid off. 2 1 Quote Link to post

Not saying as the 'sole' part of the diet, but plenty of it regularly. Our two now go through quite a bit of it each week. Along with a fair amount of chicken wings, the odd bit of carcass, spratts etc. But it doesn't cost us much. One weighs 14lb, the other 4 1/2lb 2 Quote Link to post
matty 52 Posted September 27, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 Update, took him to vets this morning, vet said he is not convinced of mange probably just lowered immune system and puppy scratching. He did give us stronghold just incase though. 4 Quote Link to post
Daniel cain 45,060 Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 picked a lakeland pup up yrs ago and had similar problems,the change to a tidy diet and a good worming/front line sorted her out...hope your pup comes right for you pal .....remember watching the poor thing take a shit and it was moving coming out of its arse, it was that full of worms 1 Quote Link to post

It's great for dogs' coats, FACT lol About forty years ago i gave my mum a fox cub that the terrier brought out of an earth and put into my hand. I couldn't weigh up why it hadn't killed it as it usually did, anyway i decided it had to live and took it home. I t hadn't opened it's eyes and my mum fed it on a bottle. After it weaned "Freddie" was fed on a diet of beef only. At about twelve months old she came home from work and found he couldn't use his back legs so took him to the vet's. After examining him he said it was a mineral and vitamin deficiency due to diet. He asked what she fed the dogs on and when she said tripe he told her to put the fox on that too. He gave him an injection and he was back on his feet in hours. She fed him a diet of tripe thereafter and he was always in good health with a shiny coat. 1 Quote Link to post

poxon 5,720 Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 Add a tea seaweed powder to the diet daily it’s cheap as chips from any farm shop or online very beneficial if the immune system is low it’s full of beneficial minerals an amino acids often over looked in the dog game google it have a read up on it I got told about it years ago by someone who bred sharpies think that’s how you spell it they were telling me as a breed they often have itchy skin and bad fur hair loss they had been battling with problems for a while back an forth to the vets trying different things they told me it was a cattle farmer that suggested seaweed powder added to the diet would sort it. 1 Quote Link to post
