In a recent study, we presented the characterisation of extended-spectrum ß-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolated from cats and dogs in Switzerland during 2012–2016 [1]. Six transmissible plasmids from Escherichia coli isolated from dogs randomly selected from this study were chosen for further analysis. Here we present the complete sequences of six blaCTX-M-1-harbouring plasmids.
