How long does it take for a dogs hair to grow back after the mange?

0

In dogs the mange is not a single disease. There are actually two different types of mange, both of which are caused by microscopic mites that either burrow in the skin (Sarcoptes) or live in the hair follicles (Demodex). Assuming the dog is in good health after the mange has been cured this means no lingering infections or excessive scar tissue the hair should start to regrow within a few months. Some dogs hair grows very quickly, others more slowly. It may also grow out the first time a slightly different color, but in time should revert back to its normal color.
