Ivomec will help it. Have to give a small amount every day for 30 days. Youll have to ask a vet how much. Mine mixed me some up with vitamins and I dont know how much he used. While folks dont like you to say it. Burnt motor oil will fix it to. I guess its the sulfer in it though.

if its the mange sulfer and motor oil ought to take care of it,ive never seen it not work.i would take a paint brush and brush the sulfer and oil all over him,and make sure he can stay warm,i always did this during the summer and never when it was cold.from what little ive seen never use corn shucks or tote sacks for bedding,every time i tried this the dog ended up with the mange for what ever reason.

It could be Lupis (spelling). It looks like the dog has mange, but won't clear up. Buddy of mine dog has it, hound looked fine then started loosing hair.
