Chachi had this. Yes it can be passed from dog to humans in the form of scabies. My vet didnt tell me that I found out by reading about it later. Since the vet didnt tell us we needed to we did not isolate Chachi. Knowing what I do now I probably would have because I have a 6 yr old in the house. I would talk to your vet and see if its okay for your kids to be handeling him. Since he is clearing up he most likely does not have anymore live mites.
