Dermatology is a specialty that has been growing in the practice of Veterinary Medicine, as many of the cases that arrive at the medical clinic are related to skin. The most observed skin diseases are those of bacterial, parasitic, fungal, allergic (immune-mediated), autoimmune and neoplastic etiology. Skin diseases can be primary, that is, be the only cause of a dermatological condition or secondary ones arising from other conditions. This work aims to classify the skin diseases that most affect dogs and cats seen in the routine of medical clinic and to summarize a series of the most common skin diseases found at the Veterinary Complex of the Cruzeiro do Sul University from January to August 2015. 357 medical records were analyzed, 337 dogs and 20 cats of different races, ages and genders. And according to the results observed in this study, we can observe that skin diseases affect both dogs and cats, but mostly dogs, sex is not seen as a predisposing factor, but it was seen that females were more affected than males both in canine and feline species, also affecting adult animals more frequently. It was also seen that a large part of the reported skin diseases were the immune-mediated ones, among them, DAPP was the most frequent, obtaining isolated cases or cases with associated diseases. Epidemiological surveys associated with skin diseases are important to identify the development of certain diseases, thus deciding on the best therapies and prevention methods.
