The material of this case report was consisted of a 5-years-old boxer male dog. In the anamnesis information obtained, it was learned that the patient was reluctant and felt pain while walking and going up and down the stairs, had incoordination disorder in the front extremities, and walked wobbly. In the clinical and orthopedic examination, no fracture or dislocation findings were found in the extremities. It was observed that he gave pain responses during the examination. In the thoracic LL, VD and abdominal LL radiographs of the patient, bone growths were detected between the vertebrae. Bone growths in the form of bridging were observed between the thoracic and lumbar T3-T4, T4-T5, T5-T6 and L2-L3, L4-L5, L6-L7 vertebrae. In the treatment, Prednol was administered at a dose of 2 mg/kg, IV on the first day and IM on the next two days. Every other day, B-complex vitamin support was provided and physical therapy was recommended. As a result, it is thought that sharing a rare case of cranial thoracic spondylosis deformans with our clinical colleagues will contribute to clinical practice.
