Wow, I don't know. I thought when Molly broke out in an allergic reaction that is was mange, but they DID tell me that steriods (for allergic reactions) would actually make the mange worse. Thank goodness it was only an allergy, although it still sucks. I was so afraid if it was mange that it would spread to the rest of our girls!
I am certain that there is a special shampoo that you must use to rid of it. Any news on improvement? Is the mange better now? I know that it is a form of mites, and they can get it anywhere. Was the puppy from a breeder or pet shop?
