tpvets_logo.jpg (2726 bytes)2347. Dog owner consulted me about dog's ear infection today. I noted that his right nostril was OK now and took a picture for comparison with Picture No. 1857. tpvets_logo.jpg (2726 bytes)Retrospective Review 1857.

Dr Sing's drawing of one adult scabies mite seen under the microscope.  (See May 9, 2009 retrospective review below).  tpvets_logo.jpg (2726 bytes)Retrospective Review 1294. Rabbit puts his paws deep inside his ears as part of his grooming but all paws are unaffected. Is it possible that the paw temperature of the Flemish Giant is too high for the scabies mite to live?
May 9, 2009 retrospective review of the Flemish Giant case encountered in May 2008.

It is most likely that the Flemish Giant had scabies and ear mites at the same time! The brown mite would be the ear mites rather than scabies mites. This species is distinct from the scabies mites.  No detailed anatomical study was done to differentiate the two species was done in this case.

Vet students may be interested in further study of the anatomy.
