Dog skin disorders are probably the most crucial disorders that dog owners have to deal with. The dog's skin and coat is an indicator for its general health. Skin disorders in dogs are indicated by itching, skin rashes, or very dry skin.

Skin disorders can be long-lasting problems requiring persistent treatments by dog owners. Most dog skin disorders are immune system related as: demodectic mange, eczema, scalp psoriasis, ringworm, seborrheic dermatitis, yeast infection. Dog scabies is not immune-system related. Scabies mites spread by direct contact with contaminated animals or items.
