Skin problems in dogs may require medication, especially if they are due to bacterial or fungal infection. Many skin problems in dogs are related to allergies. If your dog's skin problem is related to a food allergy, changing him to an all-natural diet could help.

Dog skin problems related to seasonal allergies may require precautions during the allergy season, which usually lasts for three to four weeks during the spring and fall.
