I was reading an earlier thread, "Why do my dogs...", and ran across mange being mentioned a couple times.
Our dog was very sick from mange. We brought her in to the vet for a shot. He said she would have died without treatment. Later, our neighbor Howard was looking down at the poor dog and said he had a dog dieing of mange in Vietnam. He said there obviously were vets in Vietnam with all the guard and scout dogs running around but they had no clue how to find one. Finally, they asked an old man what Vietnamese did with mange. He said they'd dunk the dog completely under a full drum of used engine oil. All the way to the bottom for as long as you dare.
Howard said they finally panicked and shoved the dog in a drum of used motor oil. The dog was cured!
Have any of you heard of this?
