Abstract
Community acquired pneumonia is frequent in the elderly but a pathogen is identified in less than fifty per cent of the cases. It is rarely produced by Pasteurella multocida, a Gram-negative oral commensal of many dogs and cats. We report the case of an elderly man with chronic obstructive respiratory disease who owned a dog and developed severe pneumonia due to P. multocida.
