SKIN DISEASES OF DIFFERENT ETIOLOGY IN DOGS

Abstract

Currently, skin pathologies in animals are of close attention by veterinary practitioners, since the qualities of service dogs are reduced against their background, as well as natural resistance is decreased, which contributes to the emergence of skin diseases of different etiology. In this regard, a goal was set to study and analyze the occurrence of skin diseases of different etiology in dogs. To study skin pathologies in dogs, animals were examined from 2010–2018. According to the results of the data obtained, we found that skin diseases were widespread. Among skin pathologies, diseases of parasitic etiology, allergic diseases, infectious skin diseases, diseases caused by formation of neoplasms, as well as endocrine dermopathy were recorded. At the same time, the taxonomic composition of parasites in dogs was represented by 8 species, of which the class Arachnida, Cuvier, 1812 by five species of parasites, and the class Insécta, Linnaeus, 1758 by three representatives. For skin pathologies of infectious nature, representatives of these classes are Bacillales Erenberg, 1835 (Staphylococcus Rosenbach, 1884; Streptococcus Rosenbach, 1884) and the class Eurotiomycetes Microsporum Gruby 1843; Trichophyton verrucosum (Boden, 1902).
