I just love Tino's very white fur. Is it soft? Liza's coat is so soft she is slippery to pick up. It's like velvet soft. So Tino's skin is from problems from the Mange? I never saw Liza in her bad condition but looking at Tino when you first got him gave me an idea what she must have looked like. So nice Tino is coming along. Tea tree oil is great.I shampooed Liza with a shampoo called Mutts Know Best a natural brand. It has aloe in it. I've only washed her 2 times. I think it feels good on her skin. She gets a little dry from the pellet stove heat.
Please keep posting pictures of your lovely boy. Sound like he is getting excellent care with you. A very lucky dog and glad he is over the hump.
