canine skin conditions
Check for flaky, dry skin in cold-weather months, allergic reactions in spring and fall, and moist eczema when itâs rainy or wet (or when your dog spends a lot of time in the water). Infectious: Fungal conditions such as ringworm and yeast infections can cause numerous skin issues for dogs. Bacterial infections of existing skin damage can also cause problems. Behavioral: Stress, boredom and anxiety can lead some dogs to excessively lick their skin. This can cause hair loss and skin infections.
