A skin scraping is where they scrape a scalpel on the skin and get a sample. They do this to check for mites. Some vets will just treat for mites without this test because there are a lot of false negatives but I don't know if our vet would do that. I think Ellie might have Sarcoptic Mange (scabies). She has been scratching her ears like crazy and it doesn't seem to be allergies.
