Three years old Rajapalayam she dog was presented with two small warts like growth on the surface of lowerjaw since three months back. These growths were pure white in colour and were tentatively diagnosed as canine papillomatosis based on clinical examination. Treatment with thuja (a homeopathic medicine), anti-inflammatory and antibiotics was found to be effective in this case. Treatment with lithium antimony thiomalate showed promising results with sloughing of wart like growths in the affected dog.
