They have made mention of it through the years because he is a very loud breather. She did not offer it as a reason for the issue. What would the vet be evaluating?

Herschel is 8. We have always fed him kibble With no issues. In the past year he has began to have bouts with either choking, seizures or something else while eating. At first i thought seizure for sure. Then I noticed this always happens when he's eating or just finished eating so I thought...

Herschel has bitten my wife and I both in the past 3 weeks. Her incident was pretty bad and I have grown concerned over what to do with Herschel and his increasingly aggressive behavior.. Background: Herschel is 8 Herschel has had entropian surgery and his eyes are a constant battle even 6...

Thanks everyone! Herschel won't eat fish but we'll figure something out.

I took Herschel to the vet today for his yearly and a skin booger. I mentioned that even after backing Herschel down to 3/4 cup of food that he has gained weight (He's 82 pounds at 6 years). She asked what, when and how much food. We feed him Fromm 1 time a day. He gets Turkey for the usual good...

We got an 8 week old female pit on Monday. The first 3 days were bliss. They played and everything seemed good and then it happened, Herschel attacked. She may have bit him while he was lying down to start it off but now he has tried to get to her while we are just sitting around watching T.V...

They did not. He asked if we have had his airway issue addressed. I told him he is only like this when he is away from the house. I do kind of blame them for keeping us waiting for so long as he continued to get louder, especially after comments about his breathing. Anyway, they did nothing. He...

He's 5. We've been home for a couple hours now, I figured he would be settled down by now as he normally is.

Anytime Herschel has to go to the vet, or anywhere out of the house he becomes overly excited. He had to go to the opthamologist this morning and the wait was long. His tem went up to 104.3 and of course his breathing was crazy. He is still snorting and breathing erratically, or heavy. IDK how...

After getting conflicting opinions about whether or not Herschel actually needed the surgery he started to develop and ulcer. We took him to an ophthalmologist, they stapled his eyes open and we scheduled the surgery. I am now having second thoughts because I am afraid for Herschel to be put...

I would love to get a second opinion. Our vet is n an affluent area and is not necessarily a bulldog specialist. We haven't had any issues with our vet yet but Herschel also hasn't been much of a problem. We haven't been given any recs for a bulldog vet in our area.

Our vet quoted 2100 bucks for the surgery including $200 blood work (thyroid). This seems high based on the internet research I've done, although those numbers are not bulldog specific. They also want to keep Herschel over night which I'm sure jacks up the price. Does this sound right? Recs for...

He is 3, and I wouldn't necessarily say it's a change in behavior as he has always been moody.

Herschel has random acts of aggression. I say random as in we're talking rarely aggressive, but he seems to remember triggers and elements that he may have become territorial over, even after the trigger is removed. One example would be a case of water bottles left on the floor. He was in rare...

I bought him a different Fromm today to see if that clears it up. This is just a recent thing over the last couple of days after switching flavors of his food. Although we dont let him get carried away, he's been getting into the other dog bowls since he was a pup.
