We present a case of lumbar vertebral osteomyelitis in a dog caused by Candida albicans. The dog was 3-year-old female kurtzhaar weighing 19 kg. The patient had a history of loss of appetite and weight, and several fistulas on the left lumbar area for three months that appeared after injury. Clinical signs were related to neurological dysfunction but were observed later in the course of the disease. The diagnosis was made on the basis of history, clinical symptoms, x-ray examination, cytology and cultural conformation. The treatment was successful after surgical debridement and oral ketoconazole for 35 days.
