Abstract
A 7-year-old, intact male Pomeranian(weighing 2.2 kg), was presented with clinical signs of prolonged anorexia, polydypsia/polyuria, severe azotemia, proteinuria and heart murmur. Diagnostic studies found chronic kidney disease, severe hypertension and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The dog was treated with 2-day peritoneal dialysis, blood transfusion, anti-hypertensive therapy with amlodipine and conservative therapies direct to chronic renal failure. This is a rare case of hypertensive cardiomyopathy complicated with chronic kidney disease in dogs.
