Abstract:
Urinary tract infections, which are usually of bacterial origin, are some of the most common disorders in small animal clinics. Female canines are most frequently affected. This study aimed to characterize epidemiological and microbiological aspects of patients and their isolated urinary pathogens through analysis of 836 urine cultures of 462 dogs collected over a nine-year period (2006-2014). Cultures were segregated according to patient history (single or recurrent urinary tract infections). Results suggest that etiological distribution patterns of canine urinary tract infections change according to development time, and that mongrel dogs between 11 and 15 years old are the most affected.
