Proportions of different choices of treatment (COT) when performing susceptibility testing. Choice of antibiotic treatment in 77 dogs with confirmed urinary tract infections (UTI) from private veterinary practices in Denmark. Appropriate COT was: (i) prescribing antibiotics to which the pathogen was in vitro susceptible (according to reference QBC), and (ii) choosing recommended first‐line agents over second‐line agents. Recommended first‐line agents in Denmark are amoxicillin or potentiated sulphonamides. Proportions in cases including culture and susceptibility testing in the diagnostic work‐up (n = 30) compared to cases without susceptibility testing included (n = 47), P = 0.67.
