Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome - Who, What, and Why!

PetAbility Podcast

PetAbility Podcast hosts, Cathy and Chris, once again lend their experiences and expertise to the show - this time discussing Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome.

• Who gets it?
• What is it?
• Why should we care?

With the popularity of Frenchies and other smoosh-faced dogs exponentially increasing world-wide, caretakers of these endearing breeds need to be equipped to address some commonly concurrent medical issues. For example, their unique anatomical features negatively impact their ability to not only breathe, but also regulate their body temperature. This can lead to chronic respiratory distress, heat intolerance, and even death. However, there are surgical options as well as environmental changes, both at home and in physical rehab, that can improve these little nuggets' quality of life. Educate yourself to potentially save a life!
