Can anyone help, I have a 7 month old sibe and a couple of weeks ago I noticed saws around her eyes and ears. It then spread to her face and mouth and became very scaby and flakey. I originally thought it was mange but after several visits to the vet I was told that it was zinc-responsive dermatosis. Since this I have been given zinc tablets for her which she is currently taking. Has anyone else had a dog with this disorder who could tell me more about it, it is awful to see my dog in this state. Please give me some advice!

Hi , Had a quick look on Google and came up with several sites , including this one:

Sibe Health Probs which has more info

Thanks Melody, these sites are very helpful, have you got a sibe with this disorder?

Nope ..just a mad Malamute :D
