Abstract | Majority of growths in the vaginal canal of bitch are contributed by vaginal prolapse, vaginal hyperplasia and vaginal tumors. Hormonal profiling of canine during whelping is suggestive of reduced serum progesterone concentration and increased estrogen concentration. Present case reports modified technique for surgical excision of high grade vaginal prolapse and vaginal hyperplasia in the bitch. In this case, surgical excision performed was successful and ovariohysterectomy was avoided to maintain the reproductive ability of the animal. Follow up of the case represented healthy recovery without any reoccurrence during subsequent estrus.
