Introduction – The use of dry biochemistry in pet’s clinics are increased, whereas the rapid result of a sample is primordial to the medical treatment, since the results retardation can carried the animal to dead. This paper, have the intention to confront the use of dry and humid biochemistry checking the parameters of the blood glucose in animals for canine species, male and female, attending in Teaching Veterinary Hospital from University Paulista (UNIP) in São Paulo city, Brazil. Material and Methods – We utilized the glucosimeter how the dry biochemistry and the semi automatic method in humid biochemistry. Results – Don’t have significantly difference in dry biochemistry (p = 0, 55) between males and females, the same occurring between males and females in humid biochemistry (p = 0, 32); with regard to dry and humid biochemistry between the females don’t have significantly difference (p = 0, 70), but with the males we verifying to have significantly difference (p = 0,006), remained the major range with the males who utilized the humid biochemistry. Conclusions – The clinic need to chose in the case of the male’s one of the techniques to monitoring the patient principally in the case where the animal encounter in the superior board line from the normality, but also never forgot the good sense in the emergence moment and a good calibration in the glucosimeter.
