My dog,Toby, does. It's eating away at his liver. It was found when the vet did a biopsy this week. He's being treated with Zenequin & Prednisone.
Why does this matter to you??? Because it is " everywhere", and can eat away at humans too !!
P. Aeruginosa is found in soil, water, skin flora and most man-made environments throughout the world . It is a Gram-negative (no outer membrane) , rod shaped bacterium that can cause disease in plants and animals, including humans . A species of considerable medical importance, P. Aeruginosa is a prototypical " multidrug resistant (MDR) pathogen ". Microbes resistant to multiple antimicrobials are called " super bugs"
P. Aeruginosa is associated with serious illnesses- especially nosocomial (hospital acquired) infections such as ventilator -associated pneumonia and various sepsis syndromes . This organism is considered opportunistic insofar as serious infection is often superimposed upon acute or chronic mobility - most notably cystic fibrosis and traumatic burns- or found in immunocompromised individuals, but, the organism does produce a range of clinically important infections in the immunocompetent and/or in situations where no pre-existing vulnerability is required, e.g., hot tub folliculitis. It uses a wide range of organic materials for food; in animals, it's versatility enables the organism to invade damaged tissues on those with reduced immunity .
The symptoms of such infections are generalized inflammation and sepsis .
If such colonizations occur in critical body organs, such as the lungs, the urinary tract and kidneys , the results can be fatal. Because it thrives on moist surfaces, this bacterium is found on and in medical equipment, including catheters, causing cross-infections in hospitals and clinics.
In all infections produced by P. Aeruginosa, treatment is dually complicated by the organisms resistance profile, which may lead to treatment failure or expose the patient to untoward averse effects from advanced antimicrobial resistance.
Toby had a violent reaction to his first rabies shot... he became agitated, spun in circles and pawed , vomited, his muzzle turned red , then he passed out . I thought he was dead ! By the time I got him back to the vet , he appeared to be ok .
Toby was pre-treated for his next rabies shot, but his health declined afterwards.
Eventually he was hospitalized for poor liver enzymes & dehydration. The liver biopsy found damage & the P. Aeruginosa infection.
So, be aware of this deadly infection for yourself & your pets.
