Skin diseases in dogs, such as hypersensitive dermatitis, fungal infections, and bacterial dermatoses, present diverse clinical signs that complicate diagnosis in veterinary practice. This study employs MATLAB as an image-processing tool to enhance diagnostic accuracy through a structured pipeline. A dataset of 500 canine skin images obtained from Kaggle was processed using enlargement, histogram equalization, Gaussian filtering, and Sobel convolution. These methods improved image quality by enhancing contrast, reducing noise, and clarifying lesion boundaries. The experimental results demonstrate that the processed images allow veterinarians to more easily detect key diagnostic features, including changes in lesion texture, color, and shape. Enhanced visual clarity supports faster identification of disease patterns and reduces diagnostic ambiguity in clinical settings. This study highlights the potential of MATLAB-based image processing as an effective decision-support tool for veterinary dermatology, enabling quicker and more reliable treatment planning. Future work may integrate deep learning classification to further automate disease recognition.
