Presley, a 7yr old Shar Pei, presented to the practice with a severe pyoderma and fever. Pustules and oedema was present all over his body and his skin was very inflamed and itchy. It was suspected he had either shar pei fever or alabama rot.
NAIDS & antibiotics were dispensed for a week and although Presley was brighter in himself, their was little improvement with his skin condition.
After a deep lavage and removal of all scabbed skin, an extensive course of Phovia treatment was administer over all hind quarters of Presley. Unfortunately due to cost and the volume of treatment required, the owner was unable to repeat more then one course of Phovia but the owner was very please with the results and has since reported that all hair has grown back better then before!
