    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Gastroenterology
    • Canine Pathology

    Background:

    • Chronic colitis in dogs presents diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.
    • Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing canine inflammatory bowel disease.

    Observation:

    • A 2-year-old Boxer dog presented with an 8-month history of bloody, mucus-filled diarrhea and tenesmus.
    • Proctoscopic and biopsy findings confirmed colitis.

    Findings:

    • Initial treatment with sulphasalazine was ineffective.
    • A combination of chloramphenicol, betamethasone, and prednisolone enemas led to temporary clinical improvement.
    • Despite treatment, proctoscopy showed minimal mucosal healing, and bloody diarrhea recurred.

    Implications:

    • Histiocytic ulcerative colitis was diagnosed post-autopsy, indicating a severe, treatment-resistant form of colitis.
    • This case underscores the complexity of managing severe canine colitis and the need for further research into effective therapies.
