Five dogs, three male and two female, between age group of 46 years were brought with the history of dysuria and dribbling of blood tinged urine from the urethral orifice for the last 1015 days. Radiographs showed the presence of cystoliths and urethroliths but ultrasonogram showed the presence of nephroliths, cystoliths and nephroliths. The nephroliths were more clearly visible on sonogram as compared to radiograph. Radiography was good for detection of cystoliths and nephroliths but ultrasonography was better for detection of nephroliths.
