A five-year-old Maltese dog was brought to our hospital with debilitation and vomiting. Blood tests showed hypoalbuminemia and hypoglobulinemia. We suspected that this case was protein-loosing enteropathy and a full-thickness biopsy of the small intestine led to the diagnosis of intestinal lymphangiectasia. A low fat diet and anti-inflammatory therapy was effective, and the clinical signs have been in remission for nearly four years.
