Escherichia colistrains are part of the normal biota of humans and animals; however, several clinical reports have implicatedE. colias the etiological agent of diarrhea in humans and companion animals. Thus, the aim of the present study was to know if companion dogs in the city of San Luis Potosi are colonized with virulent potentially harmfulE. colistrains. Rectal swabs from 30 dogs, 13 with and 17 without diarrhea were analyzed. Phylogenetic and virulence genes analysis was performed to theE. coliisolates. Additionally, the Kirby-Bauer test was used to analyze the sensitivity to 32 different antimicrobials from 14 families. Eighty-five isolates were identified asE. coliand detected in 97% of healthy and diarrheic dog samples.E. coliisolates from healthy dogs carried several virulence genes, in contrast with those from diarrheic animals that presented onlyeaeA. In healthy dogs, phylogenetic analysis showed that 57% and 43% ofE. coliisolates belonged to commensal (A and B1) and virulent (B2 and D) groups respectively. Meanwhile, diarrheic dogs showed that 69% of the isolates were identified as virulent B2 and D phylogroups. Moreover,E. coliresistant to β-lactams, aminoglycosides, tetracycline, quinolones, and folate inhibitors were detected in both groups of dogs. The presence ofE. coliwitheaeAvirulence gene in diarrheic dogs, suggest that these strains are associated with the animal´s condition. Finally, major attention must be drawn to the careful handling of dogs because of their capability to harbor and disseminate virulentE. colistrains.
