Abstract

The partial or complete urethral obstruction is one of the main emergencies seen in small animal practice. The disease may be caused by uroliths, neoplasia, granuloma and stricture developed after urethral trauma or penis fracture. The urethral obstruction induced by uroliths occurs more frequently in male dogs from 6 to 11 years of age. Since the disease is considered a rare condition in puppies, the aim of this report is to describe a case of a four week old male miniature poodle dog, submitted to scrotal urethrostomy witch removed two uroliths.
