Osteosarcoma is a malignant bone tumor with a poor prognosis. Clinical signs vary depending on the site of location and diagnosis is based on history, physical examination, imaging findings and histopathological confirmation. The present article aims to describe a case of complete remission of osteoblastic osteosarcoma in the axial skeleton of a canine. The patient was reassessed 12 months after the initial diagnosis, with no possible metastases. The therapeutic protocol instituted was surgical excision, with histopathological evaluation of the margins during the transsurgical procedure and subsequent use of chemotherapy as an adjuvant therapy.
