A six month old female Pug was presented to Teaching Veterinary Clinical Complex (TVCC), Veterinary College and Research Institute, Orathanadu, Thanjavur for dermatological examination in June 2017 with a history of itching, alopecia, crust formation, hemorrhage, pus and thickening of the skin on all over the body for past one month. Clinical examination of the dog revealed blackening of skin and musty odor. On laboratory examination of skin scraping and acetate tape impression this case was diagnosed as a concurrent infection of juvenile generalized demodicosis and dermatophytosis. The dog was treated with Ivermectin, amitraz, and antifungal, along with supportive therapy. The dog showed uneventful recovery after one and half month’s treatment.
