    TLDR Ivermectin, antibacterial drugs, and beta-glucan successfully treated a police dog's demodicosis.
    The document discussed a case of canine demodicosis in an 8-year-old police dog, characterized by alopecia and inflammation due to Demodex canis infestation. Initial treatments with antibacterial and antimicotic agents were ineffective, as the lesions relapsed and worsened over time. The dog was eventually treated at the Izmir Bornova Veterinary Research Institution with ivermectin, antibacterial drugs, and beta-glucan. This treatment successfully reduced the mite density and improved the dog's condition, with complete resolution of lesions six months post-therapy.
