▼ Successful treatment of canine pyoderma has become increasingly difficult due to the development of antimicrobial resistance and recurrence of infection. The development and spread of antimicrobial resistance has major implications because treatment failures have been associated with increased mortality, morbidity and costs related to disease. All canine skin samples submitted to Vetdiagnostix Veterinary Pathology Services for microbiological culture and sensitivity between January 2007 and June 2010, from which Staphylococcus intermedius was isolated, were selected for this investigation. A total of 319 samples from dogs of various ages, sexes and breeds from various locations throughout South Africa were obtained. In addition to the antimicrobial susceptibility data, data relating to dog signalment (age, gender, breed), case history and any other aspects of the history provided e.g. diagnosis, sample type and geographical location of the patient were collected. The number of skin samples yielding Staphylococcus intermedius was high in dogs up to the age of 6 years and, then decreased with only a few cases in dogs aged 11 years or older. The distribution of samples collected in 2010 was unusual in that there were two peaks, one in dogs two years old or less and one in 6 to 9-year-old dogs. With the exception of skin samples taken in 2008, a high percentage of dogs were under the age of one year old. 2008 had a lower percentage of affected dogs less than one year of age compared to the other years. Staphylococcal pyoderma is more common in dogs below the age of five years. Dogs above this age are less likely to contract this condition. The genders tended to be equally distributed throughout the years, with almost equal proportions of affected males and females present. The Bull Terrier types and Shepherd types were grouped separately as they were over-represented and are known to be prone to pyoderma. Large short haired dogs were consistently worse affected throughout the years sampled, followed by the Bull Terrier types. In 2010, small short haired breeds were worse affected compared to the numbers between 2007 and 2009. The monthly distribution, with the exception of 2009, tended to be consistent throughout the years. The unusual temporal distribution in 2009 could be associated with a general distribution in the number of samples compared to the other years sampled. Samples tended to be mainly from practices located in the KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa. This is most likely due to the fact that the laboratory is located in this province, with a courier network that arranges collection from these practices. Practices in other regions send their samples to the laboratory via private courier companies and the South African Post Office. Antimicrobial resistance of S. intermedius was greatest to ampicillin followed by tetracycline and then potentiated sulphonamides. The results also showed that, in general, antimicrobial resistance was low. Very few methicillin resistant isolates were detected.

▼ An increase in antimicrobial resistance in canine bacterial pathogens, including multidrug-resistance, has been reported worldwide. Increasing antimicrobial resistance is of concern, not only as it complicates therapy in dogs, but also as it is a public health problem when the pathogens are zoonotic, or the location of resistance genes enables transfer between bacteria of animal and human origin. The overall aims of this thesis were to gain knowledge of bacterial infections in dogs with special reference to urinary tract infections (UTI), surgical site infections (SSI) and their antimicrobial susceptibility patterns, and of carriage of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (MRSP). The results were intended to aid in choice of antimicrobial treatment of canine UTI and SSI, and in designing recommendations on prevention and control of carriage of MRSP. First-line antimicrobials were found to be a rational empirical antimicrobial therapy for the studied dog population. In total three percent of detected Escherichia coli isolates were resistant to extended-spectrum cephalosporins. Less than 3% of S. pseudintermedius isolates were methicillin resistant. No methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates were found. Dogs carried MRSP for several months without clinical signs. Systemic treatment for three weeks or longer with antimicrobials to which the bacterium was resistant was associated with prolonged carriage compared to shorter treatment periods. Three of five dogs treated with an antimicrobial to which the MRSP-isolates were susceptible remained MRSP-carriers. These findings support restricted use of systemic antimicrobial treatment in dogs with possible or confirmed MRSP carriage or infection. The risk of MRSP-colonization in dogs living in a household with an MRSP-infected dog might be lowered if the clinically infected dog (index dog) becomes MRSP -negative. Furthermore, all contact dogs in the family might not carry MRSP continuously during the time the index dog is MRSP-positive. The results of the evaluation of five body sites for MRSP carriage screening suggests that simultaneous sampling of pharynx, perineum and the corner of the mouth, as well as wounds when present, should be recommended. Furthermore, the results suggest that sampling of nostrils is not a priority when screening dogs for MRSP.

▼ Staphylococcus intermedius, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus canis are suspected as the most important bacterial pathogens for puppies losses. In the presented study the occurrence of these bacterial species was investigated in newborn puppies, their bitches and in the environment of these animals. Fourteen bitches and their litters were included in the study. The animals were sampled at a number of sites using swabs. Further environmental samples were collected. The bitches were sampled few days prepartum and then, together with their puppies within 24 hours postpartum and also 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks after the whelping day. In the second week after whelping furthermore skin samples from the owners and air samples were investigated. Out of 1644 swab samples 600 were positive for one of these bacterial species of interest. Staphylococcus intermedius was isolated from 553 swabs. Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus canis were rarely found. In 11 of 16 air samples Staphylococcus intermedius was detected. Streptococcus canis was not found, Staphylococcus aureus was detected only in 2 air samples. All skin samples from the owners were negative for the 3 bacterial species. The occurrence of Staphylococcus intermedius within the different cannels was characterized as follows: Few days before whelping S. intermedius was isolated from 5 of the 14 bitches. One day postpartum 12, two weeks postpartum 13, four weeks postpartum 12, six weeks postpartum 10 and eight weeks postpartum 5 of the bitches were positive for S. intermedius. Within 24 hours after birth S. intermedius was isolated from 42 of the 55 puppies. S. intermedius was isolated from 54 of the 55 puppies two weeks after whelping. Four weeks postpartum 33, six weeks postpartum 33 and eight weeks postpartum 32 puppies were tested positive for S. intermedius. From one bitch and their puppies 8 S. intermedius strains isolated at the second week after whelping were differentiated by RAPD technique. Three isolates from the bitch, two isolates from the puppies and one of the environment expressed identical fingerprinting profiles. Further a second litter of the same bitch was investigated 8 month later. There were also strains with identical fingerprinting profiles between both litters. This study indicated that colonization of puppies by S. intermedius is a gradual process that starts almost immediately after birth and is increasing until the second week after whelping. Furthermore the results demonstrate that the process of birth is related to a higher level of colonization by S. intermedius in bitches. Advisors/Committee Members: n (gender), Univ.
