Brandy has these tiny little bald patches everywhere and I have no clue what it is!! At first i thought that it may be where she scratches and bites herself, then I thought it might be the flea bath, but after a month of not using any products on her she still has them and i really dont know what it is. Is there any way that I can tell if it is ringworm? The patches are not red, or scaly. They just look like little patches of bald. Ugh! HELP!!!

Suggest you take her to the vet to get a skin scraping. Sounds like mange but the vet would need to determine exactly what is going on and the proper treatment. IF it is d-mange there is alot of good advice on this website on how best to address the issue ( beyond what the vet might recommend) and worth a read BEFORE you only go with the vet's recommendations. :)

does anyone have a link where I can get more information on d-mange? I really dont know that much about it.


You can do a search of the forums on demodex. I know I have one thread on it, and so does basically everybody else. . . :)

You can also do a general search on the internet by googling "demodex mange". That is what I have done and I have found lots of information. :)

Brody had the same thing. It was Mange. But you should take Brandy to the vet asap. The sooner you start taking care of it the better. Just for a piece of mind too. We let his mange get out of contral to the point where we would rub his head and he would bleed. He is mange clear now. Just take time and lot of love. If even that is the case. Mange is easy to research go to the search tab and type in mange you can read from alot of threads even mine. But 1st find out what it is. Please keep us updated.
