Abstract :Multi-drug resistance (MDR) in bacteria is a growing issue within healthcare with bacteria becoming resistant to overused antibiotics due to selective pressure [1]. As a result, antimicrobial stewardship programs (ASP) are one of the most important advances in human healthcare. Many studies have shown that implementation of ASP have resulted in a decrease in the amount of broad-spectrum antibiotic prescribing in human hospitals; which in turn, has slowed down the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria [2,3]. Despite the legal, zoonotic, and morbidity issues associated with bacterial resistance, veterinary medicine has been slow to adopt infection control principles. However, due to the increasing concern about the rapid emergence and spread of multidrug resistant bacteria among household pets particularly in households where there is contact with immunosuppressed persons, new interest in antibiotic stewardship programs have emerged.
