    Urinary tract disorders are common clinical presentation in dogs and are typical reasons for most antimicrobial prescriptions in companion animals. Avoidance of unnecessary antimicrobial administration is a key tenet of antimicrobial stewardship; knowing the percentage of occurrence obviates over-treatment and the optimal duration of therapy. Therefore, a study was planned to know the occurrence of urinary tract disorders in dogs at VCC, Jabalpur, M.P. The overall occurrence of urinary tract disorders in dogs at VCC, Jabalpur was 6.19 %. Among dogs confirmed for urinary tract disorders, dogs affected with upper urinary tract disorders were found to be 69.10 % and dogs affected with lower urinary tract disorders were found to be 30.94 %. Further classification of dogs afflicted with lower urinary tract disorders showed the occurrence of complicated cystitis as 25.28 % and uncomplicated or simple cystitis as 74.42 %. Age wise occurrence of uncomplicated cystitis was significantly higher (2.45 %) in dogs of 4-8 years of age group. Gender wise occurrence was significantly higher in female dogs (2.38 %) compared to male dogs. Ultrasonographic examination revealed echo textural variations in dogs like altered bladder wall thickness, starry sky appearance and presence of sludge. Urinalysis examination uncovered presence of epithelial cells, RBC, WBC, pus cells, crystals, granular casts, hyaline casts, leukocyte cast, epithelial cells, transitional epithelial cell, squamous epithelial cell and bacteria either alone or in combination in microscopic examination of urine in cases of uncomplicated bacterial cystitis.
