csd_88 138 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Alright lads my dogs where around my mates dogs few months back and a few day later they started to get strange small round scabs on there back and front legs, I eventualy managed to clear it with sheep dip, anyone have a clue what they can be? It spreaded right through my dogs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

snatchbullet 55 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 I got it on a couple of mine scabs just dried up and fell off. Didn't seem to bother dogs either Quote Link to post Share on other sites
csd_88 138 Posted October 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Mine kept getting new ones all over there legs and some between toes, bit strange to be honest getting scabs and not even injuring them selves, I'm just interested if anyone else has had it and did they get to the bottom of it.

Chid 6,789 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 sounds like ring worm,get a tube of daktarin,not sure if thats how it's spelled and some pure tea tree oil should clear it up,but dispose of all bedding and scrub the boxes if you get ring worm in your dogs , clean there boxes out with barbicide it kills it off you can even wash the dogs in it if you mix it right and it kills ringworm with one wash Quote Link to post Share on other sites

csd_88 138 Posted October 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Cheers lads, no it was defiantly caught from my mates dogs, do they get scabs of ring wom? Would ivermectin kill ring worm? They had the full treatment frontlined, worked, washed in sheep dip, ivermec and benzyl benzoate. One of them done the trick lol which one i dont know.
