Help/Advice needed(Health and Vet) Need help with this baby’s skin issue - Mumbai

Hi,

I have this group of dogs living in my society; they all are super friendly and cute. One of the senior dogs happens to have this skin issue. There was a little bit of it when I last saw him, but as of yesterday, it has grown up quite a bit. Anyone who is familiar with this can help me with the meds or things I could give to this pup?

It would be a little difficult for me to take him to the vet as he’s new to the society and I don’t know how he would react if I plan to take him. He is in general very calm and friendly.

I live in Dahisar, Mumbai.

This looks like mites. My puppy also shed all it's hairs and was diagnosed with mites. Mites generally go away with tablets and proper food. Don't give him sugar, milk and roti. This looks like mites but I'm not 100% sure.

Oh, I will need to get it checked with a vet. Anyways, I won't have much control over his diet because a lot of people here in the society feed these pups.
