    TINY bugs on my min pin
    My senior min pin has teeny, tiny bugs crawling on her stomach and around her privates!! They are NOT fleas, bedbugs, or lice.

    They are fast-moving and are about 1/4 the size of fleas...

    They are only on her - not our other dogs and not in her bedding, etc...

    I bathed her and within a few hours they were back - HELP!!

    Sounds a lot like skin mites. Time for a trip to the vet to confirm it. Sarcoptic mites are responsible for (da da DUM) mange.

    Yep, catsmine sounds right, it could very well be mites.

    Time for a trip to the vet is you will need medication to get rid of them that you can't buy from a pet store.
