Figure 1.

Box‐and‐whiskers plots of population characteristics. Legend: Box‐and‐whiskers plot of (A) age (years), (B) BCS (9‐point scale), and (C) weight (kg) of all dogs (n = 76) in the study. The box represents the middle 50%, or IQR, while the bold horizontal line represents the median. Whiskers, the vertical lines above and below the box, show 1.5 times the IQR. Filled circles are outliers. Open circles represent each individual case. Abbreviations: BCS, body condition score; BF−, dogs with nonbiofilm‐forming E. coli isolates; BF+, dogs with biofilm‐forming E. coli isolates
