The clinical course of naturally infected dogs with E. equi are described. Fever (up to 41 degrees C), depression, dysorexia and ascites were observed. Laboratory findings revealed mild anemia, inclusion bodies within neutrophils in one dog, thrombocytopenia, hypoproteinemia, hypoalbuminemia and in two dogs hyperglobulinemia. In acute and convalescent dogs sera antibody titers from 1:60 to 1:480 to E. equi using IFA test were detected. Clinical resolution was obtained with long-term doxycycline monohydrate therapy.
