Technically yes, however it is not likely that an adult dog in good health will catch it as long as they have a normally functioning immune system. Young dogs and puppies are most vulnerable to the disease. To be safe keep the dog separated from other dogs for the first few days of antibiotic treatment.

yes, she is contagious, if you have other dogs then you would need to pick up the dogs poop after every time she went so the other dogs dont get it, and same with the park, but if your other dogs have had all of their regular parvo shots then they would be fine, but you should still be carful at parks, dont let stranger dogs eat her poop!
How dogs get mange?
Yes, dogs can die from mange. It damages the dog's skin to the point that they are susceptible to a variety of other diseases such as skin infections. It also depresses their immune system to the point they become very susceptible to other systemic infections like pneumonia and gastrointestinal disease. Once the dog gets into bad enough shape, it is more humane to put it down rather than try to treat, which may not be effective anyway.
