The present study was carried out to treat a dog that was diagnosed with generalized demodicosis with no response to localized demodicosis treatment. The material of the study consisted of a 10 month old German shepherd dog. Amitraz solution (2%) as bathing three days a week and spraying for the other days and oral ivermectin tablet (0,4mg/kg) three days a week were used together for etiological treatment. Amoxicillin was used to treat secondary bacterial infections for 10 days and vitamin/mineral supplementation and liver preservation were also applied to support general health. Recovery was observed at the end of six weeks both clinically and microscopically, but amitraz bathing and orally ivermectin tablets were continued for another four weeks to prevent any recurrence. As a result; it’s considered that, the amitraz (0,2%) application as a bathing solution for three days a week and spraying for other days, oral ivermectin (0,4 mg/kg) three days a week, oral amoxicillin (400/57 mg suspension) daily for 10 days and supportive treatments were successful for treatment of generalized canine demodicosis in 45 days and no recurrence of infestation were observed for six months follow up. It is also understood that predisposing factors should never be ignored for an effective treatment.
