• calliecritturs Posted : 8/30/2009 2:39:54 PM Yep, what Jennie said.  There's really no way of knowing with that small of a question -- atheltes foot IS a fungal infection, and it actually can cover a bunch of different varieties OF fungal infections.  But dogs are also very prone to various skin infections on the face that can be fungal, bacterial, and mite in origin (and others actually). How old is the dog? What does the problem look like? *Where* on the face is it? 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
