  • Title: Eosinophilic diseases in two Cavalier King Charles spaniels.
    Author: German AJ, Holden DJ, Hall EJ, Day MJ.
    Journal: J Small Anim Pract; 2002 Dec; 43(12):533-8. PubMed ID: 12489741.
    Abstract:
    This report describes the clinical presentation of two Cavalier King Charles spaniels with different eosinophilic diseases. The first case presented with dyspnoea and a non-productive cough, and investigations demonstrated eosinophilic bronchopneumonopathy. The second dog was referred for the investigation of haemorrhagic vomiting and diarrhoea and was eventually diagnosed with eosinophilic enteritis. Both dogs had concurrent eosinophilic stomatitis, and both responded completely to immunosuppressive glucocorticoid therapy. This report is the first to describe the concurrence of eosinophilic stomatitis and systemic eosinophilic disease in Cavalier King Charles spaniels, and suggest that this breed may be predisposed to eosinophilic syndromes.
