Region X of the protein A gene (spa) was sequenced from methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates originating animals, humans and environment at veterinary hospitals in UK Ireland. MRSA transmission between animals staff assessed on basis spa typing, PFGE epidemiological data.MRSA dogs (n = 27), horses 9), cats 6), 22) environmental surfaces 3) were analysed by typing. Known contacts human animal carriers ascertained hospitals.All feline, most canine (96%) (82%) showed...

Rectal swabs from 100 dogs that were admitted to the veterinary clinic and randomly selected one kennel examined for presence of Salmonella spp. S. Enteritidis was isolated a household dog strain susceptible all antibiotics tested. Typhimurium it sensitive except streptomycin neomycin. Even though, occurence in feces this study low, attention should always be given when handling canine or contaminated materials.

Antimicrobial stewardship initiatives are widely regarded as a cornerstone for ameliorating the global health impact of antimicrobial resistance. Within companion animal health, such efforts have largely focused on development and dissemination guidelines (ASGs). However, there been few attempts to understand veterinarian attitudes towards knowledge ASGs or determine how awareness regarding might best be increased. An online survey was formulated veterinarians who treat animals. The...
