I took it to the vet that the store recommended and the vet said it was probably nothing. I didn't want to take any chances since it was a new puppy and I don't know its history before I walked into the store. I told them to do the test, and the vet came out smiling and said he had mange.
So I'm a little pissed off because I paid 1,200 for the dog thinking that it was in good condition.

I am now treating the dog with ivermeticin?? (spelling?) So what is the probability that it will get better? The pet store said they will give me another dog if it doesn't get better, but I am attached to the dog already.
ok well here is how it is i work for the pet company at another mall. seeing as how the dog has what it has it got it one of two way. way#1 is from its mom or dad it was passed down from one to the other and that is covered in your warranty. way #2 is that it got it from your house and if that is how it got it then you are out of a dog. so you should just deal with it or take it back and get another dog. if you dont mind me asking what kind of dog is it
