Transmission of toxigenic Clostridiodes difficile between a pet dog with diarrhea and a 10-month-old infant.

We describe a case of interspecies transmission of toxigenic Clostridioides difficile involving a female and her dog, both with diarrhea without another diagnosis. Genomic analysis showed that isolates were grouped into MLST clade I, closely related to ribotype 020 and shared identical genotypes.
