How responsible is the breeder if pruchased puppies have demodectic mange? General Dog Discussions
Friend bought an English Bulldog. it's a female and she's 7 months old. He's had her 3 months and she recently got sick. Demodectic (sp?) mange is the diagnosis and here's what we do know: it's a genetic disorder, that MOST breeders DO know that the condition exists. I'm thinking it will be really hard to sort out if the breeder knows. He did his research and the breeder came with good recommendations so the breeder could be one of the few that do know. Irregardless, there should be some sort of accountability. She's been a breeder for years. So, first, could I find out if breeder knew? Have you ever heard of this sort of mange? Do you have any experience with this condition and what was the outcome? Thanks ever so much for your feedback.
