A 14-year-old M American Foxhound with history of soft stool was presented for frequent urination.

The only significant finding on urinalysis was the presence of a few sheets of prostate cells. The patient was treated with metronidazole and Ovaban but was re-presented for anorexia and tachypnea. On physical examination pale mucous membranes, tachypneic, and a tense, painful caudal abdomen was present.
