Abstrakt: A nine-month-old male Spitz was presented with clinical signs of lethargy, dehydration, and haematemesis persisting for one month. Physical examination and radiographic examination of the stomach indicated presence of foreign body in stomach. Under general anesthesia, gastrotomy was performed. A gastric bezoar comprising of pebbles, hairballs and kitchen scrubber occupying the gastric lumen and causing outflow obstruction was removed. The gastrotomy and the abdominal incision were opposed in routine manner. Postoperative antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs and fluid therapy were followed. The animal had an uneventful recovery.
