We aimed to investigate the potential role of pet dogs and cats in the epidemiology of
extended spectrum β–lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae. Twenty bacterial isolates
were recovered from rectal swabs obtained from 110 dogs and cats. The occurrence of
extended spectrum β–lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in pets spotlights the
emergence of a significant public health threat.
