Sarcoptes scabei Dog Mange is the less serious, yet highly contagious, type of itch mange. Sarcoptic mange, aka "Scabies," has zoonotic potential, which means it's the mite you can get from your pet! Mange in humans is called scabies and is easier to get rid of.

Can dogs pass lice or mites to humans?

Yes. Years ago, I had the unfortunate pleasure of coming into contact with someone with scabies and I contracted them. Because you don't start to itch for a couple of weeks, I didn't know I had them and continued to cuddle up to my dog as normal. I saw my GP and was diagnosed, and within a couple of days, my dog started incontrollably scratching, so I took her to see the vet. She had scabies too, and had to be treated, bless her. So I know that you can pass scabies onto your dog!
