Okay. Here we go; I got our nu-stock in the mail today

and am holding out hope that it helps with Lucy's demodex. I also got some OxyDex shampoo for her.

If anyone has any tips or words of wisdom from experience with these products, please share them with me. Thanks!

Re: It really does smell!

Yes she did I just put a small amount rubbed it in and then took her for a walk as I knew when she layed down it would run off but I did not change her crate pad daily did hers every other day as I thought if it rubbed off she would still lay on it thought that might help her.

Hey, that's great! Thanks for sharing!

We have a girl that had a low thyroid and someone told me about a product called "Mane Tail Groom" that you get at Tractor Supply.
It's about $16 for the bottle, but within 2 weeks she is looking great. She is on medication, but this stuff helps grow hair back, and I can say it is nothing short of wonderful. If any of you have dogs that look like a moth ate their coat, try this stuff. It is a miracle how well it worked. Believe me, I will be getting more of this stuff to keep on hand. Apparently it cures or helps cure alot of skin problems. Of course, check with your vet if your dog is on medications, but it should not hurt to use it every couple of days.
Our girl is almost as good as new!

Re: Thanks Dana. We started The Missing Link a few weeks ago

poor girl I really hope this works for you guys, those dips make me uncomfortable but if that's what it takes it's better than nothin right? give her extra love and scratches for me I hope it starts to get better for you.

Thanks Dana. We started The Missing Link a few weeks ago

and I give her fish oil capsules too. Poor Lucy has dealt with demodex in several homes and had different treatments. She's currently on the oral Ivermectin and has been for months. I've decided to for now continue that and start using the Nu-Stock. If we don't see improvement with the Nu-Stock added to the regimen, I think I'm going to ask the vet about trying the Mitaban dips (which I've been wanting to avoid).

Thanks for your suggestions. I will definitely have to get some gloves! Did your girl need any on her belly? I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to put it on Lucy's belly without its getting all over everything.

not product related but

I give a supplements such as missing link, or seameal when I have had to deal with demodex to help support their systems, their coats look nicer as it comes back in too. I have only had it in pups that got sick when they were very young so it was caught early and they got over it prety quickly with ivomec and supplements, hope your baby recovers quickly! I am itchy thinking about it,poor pup.

It tells you to use every 3 days. Do put on gloves as your hands will smell for while after. Just put on a thin coat and rub it a little. In my case all test were neg we couldn't find a thing. But this is what I with my girl I would bath her with a cheap shampoo to clear away the crud then rinse and I used PYOBEN shampoo let it set for 20 mins then rinsed towel dryed her and waited till she was fully dry then put on the NU-STOCK I only bath her twice a week and used the NU-STOCK and I will say I did miss a few times and did it 5 days but tried to keep on the 3 day thing, in 2 weeks the hair started to come back. Her firist show is this sunday too I might add Oh ya IT SMELLS BAD! Feel free to email me if you wish
