Ocular examination, gross and histopathological evaluation, and immunohistochemistry were performed. The major findings were retinal telangiectasia, accumulation of exudate in the intraretinal and subretinal space, and retinal detachment. Coat‐like retinopathy was diagnosed, and it has not been previously reported in veterinary medicine.</p> </sec> </abstract>
