[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 73298"] be sure to keep this post updated. I am extremely interested since still battling issues with my dog. She is also a Lab mix. Long hair with some thick shorter undercoat. She weighs about 70 pounds so the bath is just so hard. But the prescription shampoo is the only thing that really has worked. After all the vet visits through the summer, they never ever tested her for anything. Just keep saying allergies. But after reading about mange, I would put money on it that's what it is. I believe it developed after the first "hot spot" which became infected. Then it just spread over her entire body. She is my baby, and I just feel so bad for her. She took Prendisone for most of the summer. This caused a lot of weight gain...just what we were trying so hard not to do. She lost ten pounds after we found out she had hypothyroidism. Then after two months of prendisone she looks as if she gained it back. Even with the Thyroid medication, anti-biotics, prendisone, benadryl and Omega-3's...she still had open soars and scabs/flaky skin all over, including the bald spots all over. None of that medication helped. Only started getting better after the shampoo. How long before the bald spots fill in? [/QUOTE]
