Serum creatinine is one of the parameters most used in clinical practice to assess nephrotic function and kidney injury in domestic animals through the indirect assessment of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). In veterinary medicine, there is a scarcity of information on creatinine metabolism as a function of anthropometric characteristics (gender, breed, age and weight) of animals evaluated individually. The objective of this work is to determine the reference values of serum creatinine for healthy dogs in relation to body weight treated by the Hospital Veterinário (HV) of the Federal University of Goiás (UFG). A descriptive analysis of the recorded data of healthy the 120 canine patients treated in the routine of the HV/UFG will be carried out, in the period 2017 to 2022, in which information reactive to sex, race, age, weight and results of laboratory tests will be recorded (blood count, creatinia and urea). The animals will be stratified according to sex (male or female), age gr
