An 8 year old, intact female, Old English Sheepdog was presented with lethargy and chronic weight loss of one year duration. The dog suffered from recurrent fever and a mild peripheral lymphadenopathy. Mild thrombocytopenia, monoclonal hyperglobulinemia and positive Ehrlichia canis antibody titer were indicative of Ehrlichiosis. The patient developed proteinuria and renal failure, which suggested the presence of glomerulopathy. Immunohistochemical staining of renal biopsy specimen demonstrated AA amyloidosis. Chronic ehrlichiosis was suspected to be the cause of the dog's renal amyloidosis.
