Since 2005, campylobacteriosis has been the most zoonotic disease reported in humans in the European Union. Human infections due to <em>Campylobacter</em> spp. primarily comes from food. However, the human-animal interface is a potential space for the bidirectional movement of zoonotic agents, including antimicrobial resistant strains. Dogs have been identified as carriers of the <em>Campylobacter</em> species and their role as a source of infection for humans has been demonstrated. Furthermore, dogs may play an important role as a reservoir of resistant bacteria or resistance genes. Human beings may also be a reservoir of <em>Campylobacter</em> spp. for their pets. This review analyses the current literature related to the risk of <em>Campylobacter</em> antimicrobial resistance at the dog-human interface.</p> ER -
