Chase will be starting Obedience in the beginning of Jan. I noticed that the Obedience club we will be training at also has Rally O classes... I was reading about Rally on Wikipedia but just didn't get it (Yes, I am slow bol).
There is a fungal infection that may be transmitted from dogs to humans. This infection is known as ringworm and it is caused by fungi, not worms as suggested by the name. The ringworm infection is common and will manifest through itchiness, hair loss in round patches and irritated skin.
Ticks are capable of transmitting tick-borne diseases such as ehrlichiosis, babesiosis, Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and others. People can also become infected with the mange mite that causes sarcoptic mange in dogs and develop itchy, reddened skin.
