I’ve got 2 dogs with scab sores on them. Started on their ears, about the size a pencil eraser. Now they’ve started getting on their legs. Any ideas?

Flys or a fungus are my two bets. I don’t know how much rain y’all have had but lots of fungal infections happen with moisture. Flys are real bad right now too. They’ll go to eating on a dog and then the dog is scratching at it.

I use fly traps and I have used those fly predators before too like they use in horse stables and stalls. I also ivomec my dogs. Keeping clean kennels and runs also cuts down on them. That nitrofurazone ointment will help with either of those two things. You can get it at TSC or at least you could up until the 11th of this month. I don’t know if it was included in those meds that were only going to be sold by prescription or not.

I had that problem about 6 weeks ago. Ivermectin, panacure, and safeguard internally fixed it
