Previous studies have shown variable results with culture and susceptibility depending on the laboratory and methodology used. Samples from dogs with superficial pyoderma were obtained to make a homogeneous solution of bacteria. Sample acquisition from this solution was randomized and submitted to four veterinary laboratories for microbial identification and sensitivity. There was fair agreement among the laboratories in identification of a\n                    <jats:italic>Staphylococcus<\/jats:italic>\n                    spp. as well as fair agreement among the laboratories on the same\n                    <jats:italic>Staphylococcus<\/jats:italic>\n                    sp.
