This poor dog was found in Simpruk on June 30, 2010. That afternoon, one of JAAN’s staffs who passed that area found this dog on the sidewalk walked so slowly and looked sick.

Her whole body was almost hairless and very thin. When called, this dog approached and can be easily invited into the car.

	This dog then named Winnie. Estimated 2 years old, because her teeth are still clean, but her skin indicated that Winnie has suffered an acute skin disease which left untreated long enough. The Veterinarian examined that Winnie affected Demodex, Scabies, and Fungus, while also malnutrition and there were several open sores on her skin.
	Demodex is a skin disease on dogs caused by fleas or mites that live inside dogs’ skin. These parasites are at the root of hairs and sometimes in the sebaceous gland. Demodex mites in large quantities can cause infection and inflammation of the skin. This disease is not contagious to other dogs but can be inherited to the tillerings.

Demodex is still considered a disease that cannot be cured, whereas in fact Demodex on dogs can be cured by giving regular medication and the improvement of dogs’ standard of living.

But unfortunately for some dogs owners, Demodex already regarded as the final verdict, it is more than once we have reports of dogs owners who neglected their dogs because of Demodex and even wanted to inject dead dog.

Winnie is one of that poor dogs, because her sweet character although was so frightened when rescued, we are sure Winnie was someone’s pet before found on the street.

Help us to give Winnie a second chance!
