Although I have read through some of Carolyn's great links on Healthcare , I still have a few questions.
Cupcake had a few bald spots near the base of her neck recently& I thought it may just be caused by shedding or something. Nowthe fur loss seems to be spreading further down into her back &there are black spot/scab type things on her skin.
I suspect these are fur mites or something related. In one post I readCarolyn talked about drowning "ear mites" with mineral oil. Can yousame be done for "fur mites"??
If there is something I could try at home first before going to the vet again I would appreciate any advise
Thanks so much!!
