Popis: Abstract Background Dogs with chronic inflammatory enteropathy (CIE) are typically classified into food‐responsive enteropathy (FRE), antibiotic‐responsive enteropathy (ARE), immunomodulator‐responsive enteropathy (IRE), and nonresponsive enteropathy (NRE) based on response to therapy(ies). Reassessment of initial categorization (especially IRE and NRE) is lacking. Objectives Investigate validity of categorization scheme when reassessed at least 1 year after diagnosis. Animals Sixty client‐owned dogs with CIE. Methods Retrospective study. Clinical information was gathered from records and owners from time of diagnosis (TD), time of initial response (TIR), and at least 1 year after diagnosis (T≥1y). Category change was defined as a switch between groups. Results Median disease activity index (CIBDAI) at TD was 9 and reduced significantly to 1 at T≥1y (P
