Abstract
A study was conducted to find out the changes in haematolgical and biochemical parameters of dogs infected with dermatomycosis. Low level of haemoglobulin was recorded in infected animals. Clinical illness and discomfort in dermatomycosis infection lead to reduced food intake which caused low level of haemoglobin content. Mean values of albumin, globulin and A/G ratio of infected group were significantly higher (P<0.01) from that of control group. This increased serum protein may be due to inflammatory response produced by dermatophyte infection.
