Nancylee - I don't know how you do the rescue thing, but I commend you. Our Lab (Jackpot) was scheduled to be put down twice. We were his third (and last) rescue. Took awhile to get him calmed down - he had demodex mange too. Adopting him also gave me a reason to get sober - he needed stability, not some wacky broad he couldn't count on. :crazy
