I just found some weird bug on my dog too... doesn't look like a flea; it's lighter and doesn't jump, but around the same size as one. It could be a mite, but she isn't overly itchy. It's definitely not a tick... anything else??

I moved your question to its own thread. Comments from 2 years ago, while possibly informative, could get your question buried.

Did it look like this bug?
