Ringworm can cause hairloss and irritation. It can spread to other animals and people. I have had it and found it very itchy and unsightly. I have two dogs and five cats,one cat had ringworm but all the animals had to be treated and it was costly. Not serious but believe me you could do without it!!

ringworm is not that serious however it can be really uncomfortable for dogs, so there are some medications to help them, but most dogs can get rid of it by themselves.
