Re: [Chihuahuas] Skin mites!

[shandra]

The vet said she MIGHT have them. I don't understand that! She said her skin looked pink and her hair looked thin but she has always has looked that way. Now I am itching bad all over so I am wondering.            Shandra ----- Original Message ----- From: William Faulds To: Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, February 28, 2005 2:22 PM Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Skin mites! How did your vet make the diagnosis?  Unless scrapings are taken and examined under the microscope it might be difficult for some vets to distinguish mange from ring worm.Trust me, we had that happen last year.  Not fun when you have 4 cats and 3 dogs with ring worm. shandra24c <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Ok Guys I took my babies to the vet yesterday and I was told that my smallest one might be getting skin mites. I dont know anything about these. The vet said She hopes she doesn't get them because she sure is small to operate on. DO they have to operate if the get skin mites? What are skin mites? How do they get skin mites? Any Information will help thanks.              Shandra " Lets talk about man's best friend! Join today! " Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Sports - Sign up for Fantasy Baseball.
