elongated

Hi Everyone! I am a newbie to owning an English Bulldog and to this site. Some history: my daughter asked for a Kingston Cocker Spaniel, her dad brought her an English Bulldog :no: At first we weren't really sure if we were happy, but oh how he has grown on us!!! :D Meatball is his name, but we...

Walter's hip x-ray and neuter is scheduled for tomorrow morning… I took him to the groomer's today so he could get cleaned up beforehand, and Ms. Penni told me that he growled at her when she was washing his stomach. He has NEVER done that before :( Today he was SO crazy, barking at the TV...

Well I can't take my little boy's breathing, coughing, gagging, spitting up, and what sounds like gasping for air when he sleeps anymore. Yesterday during Jewels visit to the vet, I asked and were given a consult to see the vet that did Jewel's surgery almost 2 years ago now to have Bentley's...

My floor is always wet from my two Bullies drinking water. They literally dip their chins into the bowl of water, then use that Bulldog tongue to splash water over the edge of the bowl and onto the floor. The construction of their short noses and elongated bottom jaws makes them naturally messy...

Hi guys, so we met with a different vet for a second opinion regarding beefs breathing and like i could've guessed he highly suggests the elongated soft palate surgery, nares widening, and (if necessary when he gets in there) removing saccules. I also would like him neutered if he needs all this...

Hi All! I'm brand new to this forum and was hoping I could get some advice from people that have been through this experience! I have an 11 month old, 50lb English bulldog named Beef. I was told by a vet that he probabily has an elongated soft palate and is pushing us to go through with the...

Hello all! Bob is now 16 months old and just had his palate trimmed as his nares were fine. Surgery went great and I brought him home yesterday afternoon. He's high as a kite on doggy morphine (lucky him!) and thankfully recovering just fine. They required him to sleep there in case of...

Hello, Everyone! I never really thought to join a bulldog forum. I have owned my little (Eh who am I kidding?) Bulldog for almost 4 years. Currently we live in Japan as my husband is Military, but we actually fly to America THIS MONTH to start our lives. So a little history - GusGus is a 4...

Walter's second round of eye surgery is scheduled for tomorrow… Ray is home, so we decided to go ahead and get it over with. It's important to do this a second time to remove any lashes that have grown back, and the vet saw a couple at his last re-check. While he is under she will also check...

Hello Everyone, Firstly thank you so much for taking time to read this, i hope you can help because i feel like i am going insane. I have a gorgeous 18 month old Australian Bulldog - Called Diego. In his short life so far he has had numerous surgeries to remove: - elongated soft pellet and...

Just a little back ground first. My Bentley in the middle of the night only will start licking and then will start to vomit. He sometime will have lots of plehem and sometimes nothing I will stick my hand in his mouth and there will be lots of plehem on my hand. After a trying to vomit he will...

Hello, I have an 8 month amazing bulldog... He was recently diagnosed with elongated soft palate.. Which has caused him aspiration pneumonia. He has been on chloramphenicol for about 3 weeks now. However, hes not eating anything at all, he vomits anything he eat, he's lost 5 pounds. He does...

My Bentley is almost 6 months (Feb 25th) and 2 times this week (one being last night) he has woken up in the middle of the night and I hear him trying to vomit. After he has finally vomited it's just white foam. Last night had me a little more concerned. He keep trying to vomit and then feel...

Please post your experience with this surgery. Has it helped? Caused more problems? Hasn't changed anything? I'll start with mine; I have two bulldogs. Blue had his palate, saccules and tonsils removed when he was 9 months old. It was done at the same time his Cherry Eye surgery was done. At...

I have a beautiful female bulldog puppy who is currently 6.5 months old but since about 3 months she's had random mornings where she wakes up with labored breathing and she has puked up white phlegm (very foamy). Most days she's a very active girl. I have several bulldogs and she's the life of...
