Mites are common to every type of dog, and there are many reasons for them. However, pit bulls are among the dogs that are more prone to mites, which is one of the headaches for their owners. Since you raise a bullfighting bull, you need to solve various problems. If you have mites, you need to learn how to treat them yourself. Now let me teach you how to treat mites and identify them.

1What are mites? What causes mites

Mites are a common skin disease in bulldogs. In fact, most dogs are born with mites, and cross-breed dogs are no exception. The problem arises when the dog's immunity to the mites decreases and the mites are unable to be suppressed. Older dogs tend to have large areas of exposed skin. A dog can also contract this disease when its natural immune system collapses for some other reason. Mites can be cured, and if the dog is bathed on time and given appropriate treatment, it will generally not recur. One of the treatment steps your veterinarian will take may be to inject antibiotics to prevent further infection. When a dog gets mite disease, the dog owner must be careful and get rid of the mite disease as soon as possible.

2 Treatment Methods for Bulldog Mites

1. Fukexin is effective in treating mites, but it cannot be used for a long time. Remember to stop after two courses of treatment. It would be appropriate to take more frequent medicated baths during this period.

2. Mite bites will cause bleeding points on the dog's body surface, but they are not pustules; the bleeding points are basically flat, and there will be no white tips or pus. The presence of pustules indicates that the mites in the dog's body may have been controlled, but the dog has been cross-infected with fungi and is suffering from pyoderma. It doesn't matter. The key is to remember not to use Fuxin at this time. The bulldog's surface immune system should be allowed to recover as soon as possible.

3. When applying the medicine to the affected area, if you can repeatedly rub the area where the dandruff gathers until it bleeds and then apply the medicine, the effect will be very obvious, because the area where the dandruff gathers is a breeding ground for mites.

4. If there are a lot of blackheads on the bulldog’s body surface, then most of the mites have been eradicated. At this time, the body surface should be kept hygienic and take medicated baths frequently, and the dog will be free soon.

5. Remember not to use human bath soaps and shampoos on dogs. This will take away the oil on their body surface, destroy the acid-base balance, and reduce immunity.

6. Don’t feel bad about making a nest for your dog. It is best to let them sleep on the floor. It is easier to maintain hygiene and skin health.

3. Only healthy bulldogs can be vaccinated. It usually takes 10-15 days for the late vaccine to develop immunity. Flower Pet Report advises you: During this time, puppies cannot be bathed. Before the vaccination program is completed, it is best to reduce outdoor activities and avoid contact with other dogs.

4. For young bulldogs of appropriate age who cannot be vaccinated due to physical reasons, they must be injected with hyperimmune serum first, and then they can be vaccinated after their body recovers.
