Could The Rash On Forehead Of My Child Be Related To Dog?

My 17 month old daughter has a rash behind her ears, on her forehead and neck. We just purchased a dog. The next day she ran a fever for a day. Fever has been gone 2 days but now the rash has appeared. Could this be related to the dog? There have been no other changes around her.
