“…In descending order, Helicobacter salomonis, Helicobacter bizzozeronii, Helicobacter pylori and Helicobacter felis were detected much less frequently. Ekman et al (2013) found that the enterohepatic Helicobacter canis occurred most commonly in canine saliva, while Helicobacter salomonis (50% cases) was the most commonly found gastric species. Helicobacter bizzozeronii (21.4% cases) was also detected.…”

“…in the oral cavity of dogs may be attributed to the fact that dogs in our study, as well as those in the study of Recordati et al (2007), were kept in various environments and did not have close contact with other dogs. Ekman et al (2013) used laboratory beagles that were kept together in one kennel, thus facilitating the transmission of the bacteria. This finding has been confirmed by Henry et al (1987) and Eaton et al (1996) who recorded the presence of Helicobacter spp.…”

“…The most common species identified in Finland, the United States and Belgium is Helicobacter bizzozeronii (Jalava et al 1997, Priestnall et al 2004, Bulck et al 2005. Helicobacter salomonis is the most commonly found species in Sweden (Ekman et al 2013), while Helicobacter heilmannii is the most recognized species in Poland, Portugal and South Korea (Hwang et al 2002, Kubiak 2006, Amorim et al 2015. Helicobacter pylori rarely occur in dogs.…”

Despite the high prevalence of the microorganism, its transmission, including human-human, animal-human, human-animal and animal-animal paths, remains unclear (Recordati et al 2007, Ekman et al 2013.

The aim of this study was to identify the species and determine the prevalence of gastric Helicobacter in the saliva of dogs with gastritis. The study was carried out on 30 dogs of different breeds, genders and ages, which were diagnosed with gastritis. The nested-PCR method was used to detect Helicobacter spp. in saliva. Helicobacter bacteria were found in the saliva samples of 23 (76.6%) dogs. Helicobacter heilmannii was the most commonly detected species of gastric Helicobacter spp. in canine saliva, and was found in 22 (73.3%) cases. The results indicate that gastric Helicobacter spp. occurs relatively frequently in dogs with gastritis. Moreover, the saliva of dogs with gastritis may be a source of Helicobacter spp. infection for humans and other animals. However, further studies are needed to confirm this finding as the PCR method does not distinguish active from inactive infections.

Background: Companion animals like dogs play an important role in the lives of many people and are often considered to be members of families, but definitely, any contact with them poses an inherent risk of transmitting zoonotic pathogens. One of these pathogens is the genus Helicobacter which is linked to many disorders in human and animal. Objectives:The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of some zoonotic species of genus Helicobacter in companion dogs.Results: Through culturing in a special medium, nine samples (9%) were detected as infected (two pure and seven mixed culture). Based on multiplex-PCR, 13 samples (13%) were infected by Helicobacter spp. although none of them were infected by H. pylori. Species-specific PCR indicated that 38.5% or 5/13 of the samples were infected with H. heilmannii, while 15.45% or 2/13 of the samples were infected by H. billis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the age factor had a significant effect on Helicobacter spp. infection (odds ratio [OR] = 2.42, p = 0.01). Conclusion:This study revealed the negligible faecal transmission of H. pylori. Moreover, due to the detection of H. Heilmannii and H. billis in feces and their association with human gastric diseases, dog owners should be educated about the risks and transmission modes of zoonotic bacterial infections of dogs.
