Many forms of pemphigus can be identified in dogs using methods similar to those employed for humans. [14] Pemphigus vulgaris is rare in humans and animals, but is often fatal if left untreated. In dogs, the disease presents itself so similarly to the way it occurs in humans that dogs can be used as models for the disease in humans. [4]
