History(Kohmescer): An intact 7-year-old female Great Dane dog presented for a history of vomiting and lethargic over a couple days. At the previous assessment anemia (32.5%), leukocytosis, and ascites was present. On follow up assessment the anemia had worsened ( 27.5%) and the leukocytosis was similar. ECG revealed VPCs. On cursory abdominal ultrasonography ascites and hyperechoic hepatic nodules were evident. The ascitic fluid was quantified as hemabdomen.
