The aim of this study was the patomorphological evaluation and classification of canine skin tumors, as well as their analysis according to location, age, sex and breed. Two hundred fifty canine skin tumors were examined. Mixed breed, German Shepards and Boxers were the most predisposed to developing skin tumors. A significant age predilection was observed in dogs below the first year of their life and in ten-year-old dogs, while the most common sites of the body for neoplasia development were the legs, head and pelvis. The most prevalent skin tumor origin was mesenchymal with 52%, while tumors of epithelial origin were 43.6%, and of melanocytic origin 4.4% of all tumors. The most frequent groups of skin neoplasms were tumors with adnexal differentiation (34.8%), histiocytomas (15.6%) and mast cell tumors (15.2%).The aim of this study was the patomorphological evaluation and classification of canine skin tumors, as well as their analysis according to location, age, sex and breed.
