Description:Assessing Campylobacter Burden in Dogs TO PREVENT OUTBREAKS IN PEOPLE
A project by Iowa State University, funded through CDC’s Antibiotic Resistance Solutions Initiative.
puppies. From 2016 to 2018, these multistate outbreaks resulted in 118 illnesses in 18 states.
People with Campylobacter infection usually have diarrhea (often bloody), fever, and stomach cramps. Symptoms usually go away on their own, but some people can develop severe illness and require antibiotic treatment.
Dogs with Campylobacter infections may have diarrhea, loss of appetite, and lethargy. Some dogs and puppies may not show any signs of infection but can still spread the pathogens to people.
Campylobacter infection in dogs usually does not require antibiotic treatment. However, dogs can develop these signs for other reasons, and, without diagnostic testing, antibiotics may be used when not needed. Administering antibiotics when they are not needed contributes to antibiotic resistance.
