A 9-years female Pointer with a 5 cm opened mammary mass in the 4th right mam-mary gland was referred to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Chungnam National University. Any abnormal sign was not found in physical examination. But there were leukocytosis, neutrophilia, and monocytosis. Values of RBC, hemoglobin, and hematocrit were low in hematologic examination. Several “cannon-ball” like nodules and pulmonary interstitial pattern were found in the thoracic radiogram. Histopathologically, proliferation of epithelial cells and myoepithelial cells and cartilage tissues were found in the mammary gland mass and infitration of spindle myoepithelial tumor cells was observed in pulmonary nodules. This dog was diagnosed as mammary mixed tumor with Pul- monary metastasis.
