Abstract

The primary purpose of our study is to examine the most common bacterial causes that cause
pneumonia in dogs and make an antibiogram of the bacteria most commonly found in our study. In this
study, 26 nasal samples were collected using sterile swabs from the canine clinical cases. Clinical signs
included coughing, nasal discharge, sneezing, difficulty in breathing, fever, loss of appetite and lethargic
behavior. Nasal swabs were immediately transferred, aseptically, into a nutrient broth and were subjected
to various cultural tests and microscopic examination. The sensitivity of the antibiotics is determined by
measuring the area of inhibition. From our examination and our results, it can be concluded that the most
commonly isolated bacteria that cause pneumonia in dogs are the following bacteria: Streptococcus
zooepidermicus, Pasteurela multocida, Bordetella bronchiseptica, and Klebsiella pneumonia.
Key words: Dogs, Pneumoniae, Bacterial causes, Labrador Retriever, German Shepherd and Poodle.
