Scabies

About 11 years ago I had Scabies. Let me tell you how it happened. I had always taken my dogs to Perky Poodle to have they're hair cut. A new place opened up around the corner from the house so since it was closer I took them there. A few days went by and the dogs started scratching. A week went by and they started losing they're fur and turning red in those spots, I too, started to itch. I took the dogs to the Vet to have her look at them. She said they had the Mange. How did they get the mange, I asked her, they're never around any other dogs? Where do they go to get groomed, she asked me? I told her I took them to a new place and she said they probably didn't wash they're clippers good. She gave me some cream and pills for them and said that would clear it up. Meanwhile I was scratching because I couldn't control myself. I rolled up my sleeves and showed her my arms. I told her that I had been itching too. She asked me if the dogs slept in the bed with me. I told her yeah they did. She said yeah, you caught it from them, only in humans it's called Scabies. She gave me the same medicine for the dogs and told me to wash all my linens. I was terribly embarrassed and I told her so. She told me not to be embarrassed, it just showed that I loved my dogs.
