An 11 year old MN Labrador Retriever canine (no descended testicles were present but this was an adopted dog with shelter history) was presented for progressive weight loss (4 pounds over a few months), hair loss, and leaking of urine. Abnormalities on physical examination were alopecia on the hind limbs and flanks and urinary incontinence. Leukocytosis, neutrophilia, monocytosis, eosinophilia, and thrombocytosis were present on CBC; blood chemistry and coagulation profile were within normal limits. Survey radiographs showed an enlarged prostate.
