🐾 Angel’s Skin Scraping Solved the Mystery! 🔎💕
Sweet Angel came in today with some skin troubles, and a skin scraping helped our doctor confirm demodex mites as the culprit!
🩺 What is Demodex? Demodex mites are tiny organisms that naturally live in the hair follicles and skin of many dogs. When they multiply excessively, they can cause a condition called demodicosis, leading to hair loss, redness, scaly skin, and sometimes secondary skin infections. The good news? It’s treatable! ❤️
Angel is starting a prescription flea and tick prevention that also helps treat these mites. We’re rooting for this sweet girl as she gets started on the road to healthier, happier skin! 🐶✨
