Abstract
An 11-year-old neutered male Yorkshire terrier dog was presented with a 3-week history of hematuria and anorexia. A unilateral renal mass was detected and surgically removed. The renal mass was diagnosed on histopathologic examination as a renal carcinoma. Supportive medical therapy was carried out and persistent systemic hypertension was managed using telmisartan.
