Demodectic Mange
We recently took our 8 month old French Bulldog to the vet and we were told she has Demodectic Mange. What do you recommend as treatment for her skin and immune system?

Allergies
I have 2 questions. I have 2 dogs, 1 is a purebred lab and the other is a mixed lab. Without doing testing is there a simple way to figure out what allergies they have? My dogs also have spots of scabs the size of dimes or bigger on the under part of their belly and neck and sometimes they itch at them. I have had each of them at the doctors, both different doctors, and they say it is not ringworm and scabies but an infection and have been on meds for over 2 wks and the spots and scabs are still there. What would you recommend doing since they are still there? Is there any info I could obtain on labs and some of their characteristics somewhere?
Shark Cartilage
I rescued an 18 week old Old English Bulldog that has demodex mange. He was in deplorable conditions. He has lost all of his hair. He still has scabs on the top of his head. I took him to the vet and they recommended a highly toxic dip with a 50/50 chance due to the condition that he was already in. I did my research on the problem and I found a site that recommended hydrogen peroxide and 20 mule team borax solution. I did use it and with a change in his diet of rice, sardines, jack mackerel, sweet potatoes, garlic and carrots he is doing so much better. I also rub him down 3x’s a day with pure Aloe gel and I give him enhance probiotic system capsules. He is doing so much better. He was so lethargic but he kept his appetite and I gave him distilled water with apple cider vinegar. My question is this: why has he lost so much weight? Is this something that is due to the demodex mange condition or should I take him to the vet? I don’t think that he has heartworms but I just want to make sure. I am very limited financially. I did order your product to help with his condition. I just want to make sure that his weight loss is normal for this disease.<
Vet-Ionx Products
Is it safe or advisable to administer more than one of your products at a time? For instance, arthritis and skin care? Also, is the pain management necessary to give if already giving arthritis formula (for a cat that is in pan due mainly to arthritis)?
Hair Loss on Puppy
I have a puppy that is 15 weeks. He is a Yorkie/Yorkiechin. He has a lot of hair loss, his hair looks very thin and plus he has yellowish scabby dandruff on those areas. His hair falls out in bunches. Can you please tell me what this might be? I am
concerned because I have a 2 year old and a 10 month old daughter.
Defendex
I’m trying to find out if this product works on both types of Mange?

Mange
My dog was diagnosed with Sarcoptes mange about 6 weeks ago and we used a product prescribed by the vet called Revolution. Unfortunately, that didn’t do much so I switched to neem oil, which seemed to help when I put it in his shampoo. I was really hopeful! Now the dog seems itchy again. To make matters more complicated, the vet didn’t get a firm diagnosis — he thought he saw one egg with the scraping but found no mites. What if he’s wrong? And we’re also leaving for a family vacation in 9 days. I don’t want to leave the dog with a pet sitter when he’s not feeling well! What is your advice? Can the Defendex work that quickly to help him?
Arthritis and Skin Problem
My dog has arthritis in a crisis situation, and she also has minor skin problem. Can I give her Arthro-IonX twice a day for a crisis situation and Derma-IonX in a regular dosage at the same time?
Mange for Dog
My 1 year old pit bull recently got into poison ivy. Well I gave him an oatmeal bath and it seemed to go away, until about 3wks ago and he’s covered with I think is mange. Oatmeal didn’t do the trick this time. My question is, if it indeed is a bad poison ivy case will your shampoo work for this as well?
