Katy ringworm is a funny thing -- it may never spread, may go away, come back, go away, etc. my mom's chi Taylor had a teeny spot he picked up out in the yard and every time my mom would gear up to get him to the vet, it'd go away, bastard little spot! It isn't contagious as often as you'd think, ... I don't have a clue if that's what it is or not, but for what it's worth, it actually isn't a worm at all its cause by a fungus so don't let it weird you out if it IS that. My mom finally got Taylor's to go away using an anti fungal cream 2x a day for 2 weeks...she never took him to a vet either. Haha. Anyway, ... it was just a thought, it very likely could be your initial suspicion.

I looked at the pics, but sorry - I can't tell a thing from them!! Try to get a clear one and then we can give you an online diagnosis. Ha.

I'd try fungal cream I think only way is to try and eliminate the suspects lol

So weird--it almost loose like a bruise except for the hairloss--I have no idea! It doesnt remind me as much of ringworm as it might've in the blurrier photos...I just wonder why the skin is a different coloring?

hmmmmm I don't know either! She has really thin hair though, it could be CDA. Or it could be a spot of ringworm. I don't know! You could certainly try an anti-fungal cream rubbed into the spot a couple times a day. Just get an over the counter athletes foot/jock itch cream. The same fungus that causes that causes ringworm. I'd try that first.
