One of my Catahoulas(Siqua) has developed a pretty wicked rash. It started on her but just about the time sping started.It causes pimple like bumps that she will scratch untill the hair is gone and it gets raw. Ive been using Wal-Mart brand Hydrocortizone and it seems to help on the places where I put it ,but new pimples are stating to show up on her flanks and back.Oh , shes nursing some puppies too.(It was an unplanned pregnancy with a Border Collie from the neighborhood)Can someone tell me what these bumps are and how to stop them from spreading.
Thanks,Quint

Here is another recommendation from a much more experienced hog/dog man than for skin problems. This is from Mr. Douglas Mason - he posted this information on another board.
-----
Taktic from a vet this will help most all skin problems and cure the mange. 15 cc to a gal of water, wash the dog and soak it down with the mixture let it dry on the dog, repete every week for three weeks. You should see inprovement, but if still have a problem keep doing it. This killes the fungus and mites if it's the mange. You have to keep doing it to be sure and get the ones hatching out but when you have stopped their cycle you have done something.

Hard to tell with out seeing the rash itself. Could be a fungal infection. If that is the case use, Oil of Tea Tree. The stuff works great!

Ok. Siqua has weened her pups and I am ready to start her on Ivomec. I want to make sure that I am giving her the right dosage and also that I gave her D-worm after the pups were born and if that is going to make any difference. I got the Ivomec injection for cattle and swine 1% sterile solution.Iwill also need to know if this will be given orally or injected. Thanks, Quint

Thanks, Quint Given orally dogs up to 75 pounds get 1/2 cc monthly dogs over 75 pounds get 1cc monthly. (Do not give to puppies till they are 6 months old) D- wormer is for round worms, hooks, ect.... right? If so then it should be fine, since Ivomec, is for heart worms.
