<p>Dogs were found to be the most popular pets in India, comprising 68 percent of pets owned, according to a January 2022 survey conducted by Rakuten Insight. Research has repeatedly demonstrated the significant role that pets play in an individual's life. Studies have indicated that pet ownership can lead to increased physical activity, lower serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and a reduced likelihood of cardiovascular events. Furthermore, owning a pet has been linked to lower levels of depression and mental stress, and greater self-esteem. While dogs can provide emotional and mental health benefits, they are also susceptible to various diseases and infections, which can pose a risk to certain groups such as young children, pregnant women, the elderly, and immunocompromised individuals. Direct or indirect contact with dogs has been identified as a risk factor for numerous zoonotic infections caused by bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses.</p><p>This project aims to predict various types of dog skin diseases, a zoonotic disease, by utilizing diverse machine-learning models and evaluating their performance based on various parameters. The ultimate goal is to detect the type of disease and offer recommendations for precautions that should be taken to prevent the spread of the disease.</p>
