Note that you MUST rule out Mange before treating Cellulitis - this is because if you misdiagnose Mange as Cellulitis and start the pup on Prednisone, the Mange will take over. Bad news. So you need a good, thorough scraping. Ideally from 2-3 spots. If they're all clear, though, start considering Cellulitis. Good luck and keep us posted.
