Sometimes it can be from flea bites, also dogs get hot spots and allergic reactions and some rashes come from other things. If your dog has alot of rashes on his body go to the vet. I find that sulfodene helps, and also sulfodene shampoo. Wash the area with mild soap plain Ivory or Neutrogena clear bar or baby shampoo Keep in mind you don't want your dog to be able to lick these areas that have the rash. You could try some of these remedies. I am not a vet, I am only giving advise to best of my knowledge with pets. Is the rash bleeding? Is rash sore to touch to dog? If no bleeding or oozing sores can try this Apply a paste of baking soda or dab a bit of vinegar on it. Try some bactine ointment or spray (carefull with the spray!) or Gold Bond Cream or spray, see if it heals up abit after a day or two, you may want to try a little benedryl gel If no improvement take the doggie to the vet. This is all I can think of at the moment, hope all is well with your doggie

This will depend upon what is causing the rash. Skin irritation often presents as a rash (redness, bumps or swellings, etc), but this is a non-specific response to multiple stimuli.

Causes of skin rashes range from sunburn to parasite infestation to infection to auto-immune disease or allergic reaction to hormone imbalances to cancer.

Curing the rash depends upon addressing the cause of the rash. This will require a visit to a veterinarian for examination.

Dogs can get rashes for many reasons. The first step to knowing what to do is to do research. Find the best possible treatment for your dog. It would be beneficial to buy some creamed used for dog rashes or dry skin and see if that works. If not, a trip to the vet is in order.

also a rash in most cases is due to either a fungus, Bactria or micro parasite. We cant monitor were our pets go and what they get into twenty four seven but we can be prepared. If you are looking for some information there is a company that you call call toll free. and they will help diagnose your condition and tell you what you can do to get rid of it. They are called Amber Technology. look them up and see what they can do for you.

Can shingles be spread through skin contact?

Shingles is an outbreak of the chicken pox virus that causes a rash on the skin. But before the rash shows up, and after the rash is gone, the virus affects the nerves leading to the skin. Right before the rash shows up, a person affected by shingles might feel an itchy, burny pain in that area. After the rash is gone, the patient might have pain or discomfort in that area for some time -- again, related to the nerve involvement and not the skin rash itself. So, to be precise, shingles always develops "under the skin." The skin symptoms make it easiest to diagnose, but it's not the skin symptoms that cause the greatest aggravation with shingles.
