Two dogs (Case 1: Poodle, 4 years old, spayed female; Case 2: Bulldog, 3 years old, intact female) werereferred to us for treatment of vomiting; Case 1 had a history of acute vomiting that started 1 day prior to presentation,and Case 2 had a history of chronic vomiting that started 2 years prior to presentation. The vomiting did not respondto medication in the local animal hospital. Results from abdominal ultrasound examinations showed that case 1 hadgastric wall thickening, and case 2 had no remarkable findings. For both cases, we performed gastrointestinal endoscopicexaminations, and several biopsy samples were obtained from different gastric areas. On the basis of the results ofhistopathological examinations, both dogs were diagnosed with atrophic gastritis concurrent with a Helicobacterinfection. Clinical signs improved after antibiotic therapy. This case report describes the clinical, endoscopic, andhistopathological findings of atrophic gastritis concurrent with a Helicobacter infection.
