The simultaneous occurrence of bronchiolar‐alveolar carcinoma and large cell anaplastic carcinoma of the lung is reported in a 12‐year‐old Australian terrier. Radiological findings in this case indicated diffuse infiltration but were nonspecific. Cytological examination of a fine needle lung aspirate and post mortem examination confirmed the presence of two concurrent forms of pulmonary neoplasia.
