Due to a lack of information, pet owners commonly administer non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs without knowledge of the interaction, dosage and consequences of misusing these drugs. This factor is the main cause of gastrointestinal ulceration in dogs. A female dog with anorexia and frequent episodes of emesis, as well as mucopurulent and melena vaginal secretion, was treated at the Veterinary Hospital Vicente Borelli, at the University Center of the Octávio Bastos Education Foundation (HOVET - UNIFEOB). In the anamnesis it was discovered that the owner had been treating his animal with meloxican for eight days. After the diagnosis of pyometra, the animal was submitted to ovariosalpingohisterectomy, where the presence of a gastro-duodenal ulcer in the healing phase and peritonitis was found. After palliative treatment for 30 days, he was discharged and medicated with his homeostasis restored. The purpose of this report is to warn that the indiscriminate use of anti-inflammatory drugs can lead to serious injuries, putting the lives of pets at risk.

Helicobacter spp. are bacteria that colonize the gastric mucosa of several species, and H. pylori is not described as the main microorganism found in the gastric mucosa of dogs and cats. Dogs are usually asymptomatic, but when they show clinical signs, chronic emesis is often seen. The diagnosis can be confirmed through the rapid urease test, serology, cytology and histopathological examination, and treatment is performed when there are clinical signs. The present work describes a case of chronic gastritis caused by H. pylori, diagnosed through biopsy, collected by endoscopy associated with the urease test. The treatment was based on the use of antibiotic therapy (azithromycin associated with metronidazole) and gastric protectors.
