Join us for an insightful presentation on the health challenges faced by brachycephalic breeds.
While these adorable companions bring joy to their owners (and to veterinary staff!), they also bring a host of emotional and medical issues. Chief among these is brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) — a lifelong, complex and hereditary disorder that has come to define these animals. Only astute veterinary intervention and conscientious breeding offer hope for these patients to achieve a better quality of life.
In the short to medium term, the veterinary community must collaborate to address the social, surgical, and medical obstacles faced by these patients and their owners. Early intervention and attentive care can make a difference, and client education is key to this.
If you're curious about how you could improve the lives of brachycephalic dogs, this breakfast is a must-attend event. Join VetPrac and Dr Ema Bowman as we share strategies to enhance the welfare of these special companions—providing, of course, that the client is willing. Be part of this inspirational discussion and discover how our profession can spearhead positive change.
