vets mate ...skin problems could be anything from allergy to mange or worse

[TOPPER]

get some benzo benzacoate on him that will sort out any mite problems , feed him plenty of raw meat ie ox hearts etc that will bring him on and tripe i know it stinks but he ll love it

sounds like Sarcoptic mange.

get him to a vet for treatment.
if you want to give a milk substitute try Lactol.

Cut the milk out and just feed him a good brand of puppy food supplemented with raw beef bones.Then bath him in a medicated shampoo for dogs.It sounds like a reaction from either the fleas or the milk.atb dell

not being funny mate but it may be the ceapest option to go to the vets and get sorted what it is. if sarcoptes mites they can also infect humans.
if youknow what it is you can treat it quickly and effectivly.
good luck

A seven week old pup thats had a bad start needs to see a vet also dont know how good your worming was again check with vet its to easy to lose a pup get it sorted now so you can concentrate on its early training and socializing.ATB

so that the likes of us spend more dosh down the vets probly lol, its being put under licence ,only sold on presciption ,it also sorts out sweetitch on horses ,in all honesty i think the big companys wernt making any money on here expensive products when you could get benzyl for a fiver thats my theory anyhow atb BB here my pup now
