dc.description.abstractThe present study was conducted to understand the epidemiology of canine pyoderma, etiological agents involved, and their antimicrobial susceptibility patterns by in-vitro antibiotic sensitivity tests, detection of antimicrobial resistance genes and also comparison of therapeutic efficacy of CefpodoximeClavulanic acid combination and Cefovecin in treatment of staphylococcal pyoderma in dogs. Epidemiological investigation revealed highest incidence of Staphylococcal pyoderma in male Labrador Retriever of 1- 3 yrs of age group. Both generalized and localized lesions were observed. Majority of the animals brought with the complaint of alopecia (94.37 per cent). Clinical samples of 71 cases of canine pyoderma were subjected for culture examination and antibiogram studies both phenotyically and genotypically. Staphylococcus spp. was identified as the commonest organism (84.51 per cent). Among the 60 Staphylococcus spp., 53.33 per cent were identified as S. epidermidis followed by S. pseudintermedius (16.67 per cent), S. lugdenensis (13.33 per cent), S. hyicus (5 per cent), S. schleiferi (5 per cent), S. aureus (3.33 per cent) and S. delphini(3.33 per cent). On antibiogram analysis of the isolates majority showed multidrug resistance. Penicillin resistant staphylococci were confirmed the most (62 per cent) in the study followed by tetracycline resistance (50 per cent), fluoroquinolone resistance (35 per cent) and Macrolide resistance (20 per cent). Both genotypic and disk diffusion method of resistance patterns were comparable. All the isolates were sensitive to cefovecin. Efficacy in treatment of both the groups with Cefpodoxime-Clavulanic acid combination and Cefovecin gave comparable response but the dogs treated with cefovecin gave better result than other.en_US
