What kind of bug is this? And should I be worried that it was stuck to my dogs chin?

I got it off of him looks like it was dead it made a crunch when I crushed it but basically turned to dust
So I assume it was completely dead before it got stuck to his chin

😫😫😫😫

That’s just a cicada and it won’t hurt him. I have caught them many times and my cat used to catch them and eat them. The big birds also like to eat them. The shell is what remained after the cicada crawled out of it. Your dog probably saw it and went sniffing around and it crawled on him and started wiggling out to fly away.

@KaysHealingPath They call them chicharras in spanish. BB is right, they're harmless.

@arthurca I had no idea they were the same thing 😅😅😅

@KaysHealingPath They dry up and die anywhere, so nothing to worry about.
Just a beetle. Wouldn't worry unless your dog starts showing signs of an allergic reaction
I have a bug app on my iphone and it says that bug is a Humpback Dung Beetle. If that is true then it is harmless.
