I wouldn't ever dip a puppy for demodectic mange. There are topicals that can be used to treat only the affected area. I don't like treating the whole body for a localized area. I feel like it puts a stress on the immune system. Like was said, you have to relieve the stressors or treatment won't work. Could this possibly be a staph infection? I know my friend with GSD has a young one with staph on his nose that produced hair loss.
