Name: Nadia
Nadia was brought to our clinic about a year ago with severe crusted and hemorrhagic lesions of the skin all over the body. Dog was obtained from another owner with the statement that it was incurable disease and not even worth trying to treat. With microbiological diagnosis, parasite Demodex canis is recognized. Opponent is known, we started a fight! After several months of intensive treatment and special diet for skin problems, skin is completely healthy and hair is covering the whole body, so today, Nadia is a proper representative of her breed which actually is known by a thick blanket of hair.
