An ear mite is a tiny insect which lives on the surface of the dog’s ears. It causes a lot of discomfort to the pet. Dogs start shaking their head vigorously if they catch a ear mite infection. The ears start smelling badly. The health of the skin deteriorates and the surface becomes quite oily.
There are many long term effects of Lyme disease and it appears to be more common than the researches usually suggest. Several studies conducted on patients at the neurology or Lyme disease clinic have shown that the illness does have symptoms that can last a lifetime. These symptoms are not necessarily harmful but they may lead to conditions that are harmful.
Fleas, ticks, lice and mites can cause skin infection in dogs and result in irritation, discomfort, weakness, sore skin, redness, inflammation, itching and restlessness. These have to be immediately treated as severe cases of infection may take longer to cure and the pet may become extremely weak.
