Abstract: Simple SummaryStaphylococcus skin infections in companion animals are a growing concern due to their impact on animal health and the risk of spreading these infections to humans. Traditional antibiotics are becoming less effective because bacteria are developing resistance to them, underlining the need for new alternative treatment approaches to prevent and control staphylococcal infections. This review explores new strategies to fight these infections, including novel antimicrobials, repurposing existing drugs for new uses, natural products, skin antiseptics, and other new treatments. These strategies can help maintain the health of companion animals, reduce the risk of transmission to people, and ultimately benefit public health by limiting the spread of resistant bacteria. AbstractThe treatment of dermato-pathogenic Staphylococcus spp., particularly Staphylococcus pseudintermedius, in companion animals presents significant challenges due to rising antimicrobial resistance. This review explores innovative strategies to combat these infections. We examined novel antimicrobials and the repurposing of existing drugs to enhance their efficacy against resistant strains. Additionally, we evaluate the potential of natural products, nanomaterials, and skin antiseptics as alternative treatments. The review also investigates the use of antimicrobial peptides and bacteriophages, highlighting their targeted action against staphylococcal pathogens. Furthermore, the role of adjuvants in antibiotic treatments, such as antimicrobial resistance breakers, is discussed, emphasizing their ability to enhance therapeutic outcomes. Our analysis underscores the importance of a multifaceted approach in developing effective antimicrobial strategies for companion animals, aiming to mitigate resistance and improve clinical management of staphylococcal skin infections.
