Topical therapy has gained more focus as it reduces the side effects and duration of the systemic drugs and provide a much more effective results by targeting affected areas. This study was conducted to evaluate comparative therapeutic efficacy of mupirocin and fusidic acid against Staphylococcal pododermatitis in dogs. During the study period, dogs presented to VCC, College of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry, Jabalpur (M.P.) were screened over six months period from May to October 2024. 12 confirmed cases were assigned in two different treatment groups with 6 dogs each. The two treatment groups were administered with mupirocin and fusidic acid. A significant decrease was seen by week 4 in both groups although the mean time-to-resolution of lesions was comparatively less in the group with mupirocin as the topical treatment.
