A 6-year-old male dachshund dog was presented to the Teaching veterinary clinical complex, durg, with a history of vomition, hematuria, anorexia and dysuria. All the physiological parameters were within range except serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen. Abdominal ultrasonography showcased hyperechoic area within the bladder suggestive of cystolith and radiography finding revealed an opaque mass.

Urolithiasis is considered as one of the most common disorder in dachshunds. Their dissolutions are important to prevent any further complications leading to anuria. Proper antibiotic therapy for atleast 2 weeks in uroliths or associated urinary tract infections lead to good prognosis. Allopurinol is important to prevent ammonium crystal formation in the urine. Once the main triggering factor (stones) gets dissolved, blood urea nitrogen (40 mg/dl) and creatinine (1.2 mg/dl) values return to their normal values post treatment
