Abstract: A total of seven dogs of different age groups and breeds presented themselves at the BSDPHA an Hospital affiliated with Mumbai Veterinary College, Parel, Mumbai with history of blood in urine from 15 to 30 days. Clinically, the dogs were found to be lethargic, depressed and dehydrated. Abdominal palpation revealed a distended bladder and the same was seen on a lateral abdominal radiograph. The radiograph also revealed the presence of multiple radiopaque cystic calculi. Surgical correction, cystolithectomy, was performed through a caudal ventral mid-abdominal incision under general anesthesia. Stones measuring different sizes are removed. All dogs recovered without problems.
