Abstract

Here, we report the complete and draft genome sequences of 8 Staphylococcus pseudintermedius isolates, 4 from human bacteremia infections and 4 from canine bacteremia infections. This species is recognized primarily as an important canine pathogen, but it is increasingly being identified in human infections.
