I previously had 2 Lhasa Apsos who had terrible problems with ear mites. They grew really old and had to be put to sleep.
I got a my new puppy right before they were put to sleep. They met once, for a brief minute and never touched... (As you probably remember) I've had her around 3 weeks. She's been scratching at her ears A LOT lately and today I noticed they were starting to smell (just like my Lhasa Apsos did in the past).
We're going to the Vet tomorrow to get some more shots and I plan on telling him about it.
I was just wondering though, are the ear mites contagious? Did my Lhasa Apsos leave them behind for the new puppy?
