Abstract
Sporotrichosis is an uncommon mycosis of dogs caused by Sporothrix schenckii. This report details the diagnosis and treatment of intranasal sporotrichosis in a dog presented for a loss of smell, sneezing, and nasal congestion. Following 6 months of itraconazole treatment, a computed tomography scan showed a complete resolution of previously identified abnormalities.
