Abstract: Early detection of renal diseases in canines is crucial for improving prognosis and extending quality of life. Urinalysis plays major role in identifying renal dysfunction. This study was aimed to evaluate different haemato-biochemical parameters along with urinalysis in dogs with Stage I and II of renal disease. Study was conducted on 13 dogs with Stage I and II renal disease. Mean values of TEC, PCV, Sodium, Potassium and Calcium were decreased while mean values of TLC, Monocytes, MCH, MCHC, Creatinine and ALT were increased. The urine pH of 10 dogs ranged from 5.0-6.5 whereas 3 dogs had pH 8. Mean value of UP:C was found to be significantly increased. Crystaluria (5), struvites (4) and bilirubin crystals (1) were found.
