Complementary Upper Respiratory & BOAS Assessment for Brachycephalic Dogs
At Vets on Crown , we understand the unique respiratory challenges faced by brachycephalic (flat-faced) dog breeds such as French Bulldogs, Pugs, and Bulldogs. To help ensure your pet’s long-term health and comfort, we offer a complementary upper respiratory and Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) assessment.
What is BOAS?
BOAS (Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome) is a condition that affects flat-faced dog breeds due to their shortened skull structure. This can lead to restricted airflow, causing breathing difficulties, snoring, exercise intolerance, and, in severe cases, life-threatening airway obstruction.
Why is a BOAS Assessment Important?
Early identification of BOAS symptoms is crucial for managing and improving your dog’s quality of life. Left untreated, BOAS can lead to chronic respiratory distress, heat intolerance, and even collapse. A proper assessment helps determine whether medical management or surgical intervention may be necessary.
