Some vets do use antibiotics as well as medicated shampoo etc. Although I do think most vets are in it for the money and prescribe antibiotics for everything.
Scabies
When a human contracts mange, the condition is referred to as scabies. Humans can get mange through prolonged physical contact with an infected dog. Contact through petting, sleeping in the same bed, playing and sharing the same furniture can allow transmission.

Very chicken and egg on this one.
Which came first, Winnie's mange or Tyde's scabies?
Well this escalated quickly.

Thought maybe we had a big dog from the north in some really hot weather. Dog just laboring really hard to cope. Immune system weakened.
But then again it was 72/64F today 95% humidity. Not too bad, right?
I would still try to rig up something cool for the dog to lie down on. Heat will be an issue at some point.
Can't think what that might be though.
Window air conditioning unit is prolly prohibitive and would prolly disappear.

lol you got any antibiotics for the aids homie?
By your own admission, it seems like you have sex with random strangers(without protection of course) so it more likely that you have more diseases than I do.

Mexico City & Mexico in general is insanely underrated. Good food, nice people, beautiful nature & wide variety of culture.

Mexico is also a lot safer than it comes off to be. Of course it has it's dangerous areas but those are easily avoidable.
Always liked this guy. Travels around the world playing poker but likes to keep it real by staying in hostels and mixing with the locals.
His mind is wide open. And that's through seeing shit for himself rather than the nonsense that comes outa our tv screens.
What he says is true. Mexico isn't nearly as dangerous for gringos as the US government wants you to believe it is. There is an unwritten rule down there that you don't hurt the gringos, because they bring a lot of money in. If somebody hurts a gringo they will most likely be killed by the cartel. I feel like I could go out partying in most of the "rough" areas in mexico and feel safe. There are maybe 6 parts of mexico that I wouldn't feel safe in. Of course there are some things you don't do. Getting involved with drug dealing will quickly put your life in danger. Also, don't try getting on some cartel guy's girl. Mexicans are insanely jealous and that is a terrible idea.
I dont think the rough areas of mexico are any more dangerous than the rough areas of the USA for the white man. Know how to act, and don't be flashing expensive jewelry or large amounts of cash and you should be fine. The tourist areas, and the big non border cities like Guadalajara and Mexico City I think are very safe.

Not to lecture you because youve lived there after all but I think we can agree that there is a huge difference between having beers with sketchy dudes and traveling through kidnap zones.

You think driving through the west side of chicago or patterson is any safer? I'll take my chanceS in Mexico if given the choice.
Yah, I don't know about kidnappings. They'll rob you though. Even the cops will rob you. They see a passport, and they see dollar signs. I wouldn't want to drive through mexico because of that, but my white friends who have driven PV to cali many times, which is a long drive, say its safe as long as you know which areas you can and can't stop at

As far as I know about kidnappings, sounds like most of them are either women who they want to sell into prostitution, or migrants from south america who they want to run drugs for them. I'm sure it happens to gringos sometimes, but not as often as the US government wants people to believe. Getting extorted by police, or criminals is a far greater risk imo

Yep you're spot on... On my travels around the Middle East and parts of Africa I've always felt safe.... and that's because the same rule applies as the one you make above....Even when the people are dirt poor they know not to fuck with the people who are bringing new money into their country.
But not only that. These dirt poor people will go out of their way to make you feel welcome AND safe........... Yet if you listen to the media, they'll have you believe that there's a serious risk to your life if you leave your own shores.. Totally laughable
Also don't forget that rich nations don't want its citizens taking money out of the country to spend elsewhere...
It totally baffles me why so few Americans refuse to travel abroad... Just so much to see out there.
Maybe it's the media and government who have done a good job in convincing Americans that they all have a target on their head once they step outside of the country.. Which of course isn't in the slightest bit true.
Move up to where they respect your scabies.
Stars has been kicking my ass
it's a lot harder now imo
I think I'm down like 3 grand or something like that since coming to Mexico
Gotta admit, that's fucking brilliant.

Can you give me your data? How much are we down in numbers as far as traveling abroad as compared to like 1995, 1975, and 1955?

I'm sure you are right in some capacity because they have Americans more fucked up than probably any people in any time period ever. But I think the overwhelping reason would be that at least 90 percent of the population lacks the number of units it takes for these adventures.

That guy seems to know his onions when it comes to Americans traveling abroad.
Numbers are head fuckingly crunched, but he reckons the number of citizens that traveled 'overseas' in 2009 is around 3.5%.. It's a bit more complex than that if you read it though.
That imo is shockingly low for the most advanced country on earth.
And I don't care what anybody says.. Visiting other countries and experiencing other cultures definitely enriches your outlook on life.
So, what kind of portrait does this paint about Americans overseas travelers? Well, this can be said: somewhere between 11.6 and 14.6 million Americans actually traveled overseas in 2009, taking a trip lasting on average seven nights (students and travelers visiting family and friends stay significantly longer) and usually visiting just one country. These four major geographic areas are our most likely destinations: Europe (35% of all U.S. trips), Caribbean (21% of all trips), Asia (19% of all trips) and South America (9% of all trips).
America's most popular overseas countries are: England (9% of all trips), France (7%), Italy (7%), Germany (5%), Dominican Republic (5%), Jamaica (5%), Japan (4%), China (4%), India (4%) and Spain (4%). Other significant countries visited include: Bahamas (3%) and Costa Rica (3%). With just six percent of Americans trips going to the Middle East, and even fewer, just three percent, visiting the whole continent of Africa, and two percent going to Australia/New Zealand.
