Abstract

Lethargy and weight loss were associated with chronic lymphocytosis in a dog. The bone marrow was infiltrated with large numbers of small lymphocytes, similar to those appearing in blood. Clinical and laboratory examinations led to a diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Four other cases of chronic lymphocytic leukemia were evaluated retrospectively.
