Hamish's Story
We took Hamish in on 22 November 2022, who was familiar to us from our local feeding rounds. We often give Mange treatment Nexgard to strays to cure their skin problems and if they are not so thin we know they have a food source, but this poor boy is just too thin and wouldn't likely survive to much longer.
Mange is easily treatable, with a range of drugs, including Ivermectin which is readily available and extremely cheap, but we use Nexgard or Nexgard Spectra as this has the additional benefits of fighting off ticks, fleas, intestinal worms and some cases of heartworm. Sadly, too many strays suffer from Mange, and their appearance, although easily remedied, is often interpreted by the public as something much worse, and they don't tend to intervene.
The solution of malnourishment is the right kind of restorative food, and plenty of it! We feed all new rescues and puppies 3 times per day using Aozi organic canned food. This is currently 68 pesos (about $1.20) per can and we need around 15 cans per day. Some dogs like Bilbo need specialized food, which costs considerably more.
