    Chiggers attach themselves to the skin of the dog and inject their saliva. This saliva is filled with digestive enzymes that will start breaking down the skin cells of the dog. Once the skin cells have been broken down, the chigger mite will drink the nutritious liquid. It is the enzymes that cause itching and rash formation in the dog.
