Dog sarcoptes is a skin disease caused by a parasite called Sarcoptes, which can live on the dog's body surface, causing symptoms such as itching, redness, swelling, and hair loss. The parasite is transmitted through direct contact, such as when a dog comes into contact with an infected dog or shares blankets, bedding, and other items.
In addition, sarcoptes can also be transmitted indirectly, such as when a dog comes into contact with parasites remaining on infected surfaces such as the ground, walls, furniture, and toys. Therefore, people who keep dogs at home should clean their home environment regularly and pay attention to skin examinations for their dogs to detect and treat skin diseases in a timely manner.
If your dog has abnormal symptoms such as itching, redness, swelling, and hair loss, it is recommended to take it to a veterinarian for a physical examination and diagnosis to determine whether it is sarcoptes or other skin diseases, and treat it according to the doctor's advice.
