Oh mange why are you still here?

Our Brownie here has had mange, lost hair, looked sad, take Ivermectin everyday for over a month, healed, hair grew back. But after one month of good hair and wrinkles, the hair is slightly thinning after he stayed at the Pet Hotel for 5 days. We know it's the separation anxiety and stress of being away from Mom & Dad, but then he has his brother with him the whole time...

The Vet told us to continue to watch it but that the medication is not necessary unless it shows signs of further hair loss...although I don't know how good she is if she did not notice that our Browner has a light thinning in his forehead which the Vet "missed" but only because she only examined from the front..!!! Can you believe that? Hopefully, this mange goes away since we would hate to have to feed him meds for another few months...

In the meantime, HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO EVERYONE and may you and your family have a safe holiday and a very healthy New Year!
