Tiny Bugs! Help! I am clueless. Bailey is my first dog so I have no experience. I've had her about 7 weeks and pretty much ever since I brought her home I have noticed these tiny little bugs around the house. I see them mostly where the dog has been, but also on entrance points like the sliding door and coming up the sink drains. I have never actually seen them on Bailey or right next to her as if coming off her.
They are tiny, like half the size of an ant, and kind of light brown or gray in color. They're more long and skinny than round. They can also hop. They're not fleas. Bailey has never had any flea dirt on her and doesn't itch enough for that. But I am clueless about what they are.
I usually just see one or two or a few at most. The most I have seen all together is when I used a washcloth to clean Bailey's bottom the other day, and then soaked it in the sink. After the water drained out there were dozens of the bugs on the washcloth, like they are attracted to the smell of her poop or something?
Anyone have any ideas? |
