--- Canine Ehrlichiosis is a disease caused by different rickettsial microorganisms, principally by Ehrlichia canis. It has been reported around the world like a zoonotic disease and in our country was detected in 1982. The clinic diagnosis is based in detection of signs like depression, fever, anorexia, pallor of mucous membranes, lost of weight, lymphadenophaty, hiphema and erythema. In Clinical Laboratory, the hematology, sanguineous biochemistry, urine-analysis and serologic tests are usefulness in definitive diagnosis. The present study determinated the concordance grade between the hematology test and indirect ELISA assay, because la relationship between both tests is unknown in our country. 97 dogs were obtained from the Clinical Pathology Laboratory in Veterinary Medicine Faculty of San Marcos National University. We are found 84.67 ± 10.98% of concordance grade. Likewise, was determinated that thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, anemia and tick contact antecedent were significant (P is less than 0.05) in relation with evidence of disease. The percent of cross-breed dogs and German Shepherd dogs (GSDs) with Canine Ehrlichiosis was higher than other breeds. The hemorrhage signs were statistic significance only in Nordic races (Siberian Husky and Samoyedo). Finally, we found a high concordance grade between both tests, this results reveal that hematology in our country is very important in the Canine Ehrlichiosis diagnostic and serology is a support test in confuse cases.
