Анотация: This report describes a case of superficial necrolytic dermatitis (SND) in an 11-year old Schipperke female spayed dog. The report includes the clinical presentation follow-up, clinical chemistry, histopathology and ultrasound findings. A diagnosis of SND was based on clinical presentation, clinical chemistry, ultrasound examination and supported by the histological findings of parakeratosis, acanthosis, basal cell hyperplasia and epidermal edema. The dog also developed renal failure two months after initial presentation, a finding that has not been reported previously. A review of the literature is presented including comparative aspects of the disease in cats, rhinocerus and humans
