  • Title: What's eating you? Canine scabies.
    Author: Burroughs RF, Elston DM.
    Journal: Cutis; 2003 Aug; 72(2):107-9. PubMed ID: 12953932.
    Abstract:
    Infestation with Sarcoptes scabiei var canis, the causative strain of canine scabies, can produce a pruritic rash in humans. The rash generally manifests within 24 to 96 hours of contact with the affected pet. Scrapings are generally negative, and the correct diagnosis requires a high index of suspicion.
