His name's Buster. He's got an excellent attitude about all this. Just wants to be held and loved. He's been good about relaxing and healing, but as he's feeling better he wants to play more. No dips, just the oral ivermectin. Daily dose every morning. Seems to be working. He's a little more itchy and some hair has been thinning out a little so I think the mites are dying off.
Pictures from Sunday night. He's already looking better since then. Bleeding hasn't quite stopped. Still some oozing. The nasty crusty skin is starting to flake off (sorry for the grossness so early in the morning).
I'll start with a cute one

Luckily, he doesn't look like this anymore! Still no hair, and very pink, but not so swollen.
One funny thing about this little guy. My wife used to have a dachsund and I had a greyhound until just recently. Well, Buster has two different ears. One is a dead-ringer for her dachsund's ear and the other looks just like my greyhound's ear. You can kind of see the difference in the first picture.
