    Just noticed this little mark on my Labradors Groin Area. It looks like dry skin to me but I don’t really know. It isn’t bothering him or doesn’t seem to hurt him if I touch it - there’s no lump or anything.
    Anyone any idea what this is? Any advice would be much appreciated!

    That could be ringworm or some other fungal infection. Best to get your vet to check it out.

    Yeah I agree, it looks fungal. Definitely worth a trip to the vets!

    Looks like ringworm to me.
    If it is it is ringworm, its infectious so keep an eye on humans as well.

    Does have a ringworm quality about it. Definitely a vet job!
