I rescued a pit bull puppy a couple days ago from a very bad situation. She was in a cage all day laying in her pee and poop. She has really dry skin and red marks all over her belly.

I'd take Mila into a vet today to get checked out. She could have mange or a skin infection from her horrible situation, and that requires veterinary care. Please take her into a vet now. Best of luck.
