Nasal mites in dogs?

south central, WI(Zone 5a)

NO mites...just allergies (update) More at bottom of note,

Pippin has been in to see the vet (including the ER) 4 times in 5 days. She got steroid shots, but that didn't help. I was afraid a piece of the chewstick got stuck on her patella, so that was the ER--3 X-ray shots showed no blockage ( that was the first appt).
Our vet this AM said that she might have nasal mites and she got a shot for that along with taking more prednisone when she got home...(the deximethisone shot from 3 days ago didn't help)
Now little Pip is very allergic, so housemate is making human food baby food for her, just in case something on her list got into the last bad of California Natural.....I think she will be eating in a separate room tonight, so the others will eat their bland boring CA, before they get the wonderful crunchy CA..
Any info/experience would be helpful.

NO nasal mites..another 2 trips to vet and one to ER to get her scoped. The doc there (nice guy .wonderful skills) did the scoping and did biopsy (she had some issues before). He said that it looked OK for the samples, inflamed nasal passages.
Seems that we are both blessed with Allergic Rhinitis.
Gonna have to get those T-shirts stenciled, cat toys made, cement crafts done and finish the jewelry to sell....This week ended up in 4 digits.......I am grateful for the diagnosis though...was afraid to lose another furkid to congestive heart failure....still keeping toes crossed that the cultures come back negative.
