The lesions comprise nodules or plaques, mostly localized in the oral cavity. To describe the clinical presentation, histological features, treatment and outcome of concurrent eosinophilic granulomatous dermatitis and cutaneous mucinosis in a Shar-Pei. A seven-year-old sharpie dog with a large nodule on the frontal region of head was referred to private veterinary hospital. Well circumscribed, soft cutaneous nodule observed in dermatological examination. Histopathological examination revealed microgranuloma structures with degenerated collagen fibers, surrounded by large amounts of eosinophils and other mononuclear inflammatory cells as well as deposit of mucin-like substance which stained with Alcian blue. The follow-up of the case 6 months later showed no evidence of tumor recurrence.} }
