nares

Hello! I have joined your forum because I am desperate for information. I need to locate a veterinary surgeon that is skilled at nare and soft palette surgery. I actually own a French Bulldog and she is having a lot of trouble breathing in air through her nose, she also gags and throws up food...

Good morning everyone! Some puppy issues with Jackson - he is going for his first vet check today and I need some advice. From the day we first met Jackson, when he was 5 weeks old,he had this sort of congested sound. It sounded like mucus in his throat. Breeder assured us he drinks too fast and...

Hey guys, First of all, I'm sorry that I have been MIA for weeks... we are FINALLY down to the end of dealing w/my MIL affairs. It literally took us months to clean our her house, we filled an entire dumpster. We are NOW down to pulling up carpet, padding and painting which I think at this...

Hi, my name is Ella.I came into KCEBR after my owners decided I was too much woman for them to handle. I'm simply a woman who knows what she wants, and what I don't want, and since we don't speak the same language I let them know by snapping at them. I have not ever bitten anyone, I just give a...

Think it is getting time for pebbles to have entropion surgery. I'll take her back to the vet next week but he has already told me it is coming. This is Brittmore vet which is listed a Bulldog vet & there are usually 2-6 bulldogs in the waiting room when I go. My question: Vet stated that...

Just a general question: Do dogs with stenotic nares always also have elongated soft palates? Bug has both and we're wondering for the future if we decide to get another EB. Many of the photos of the puppies I have seen advertised through the AKC website look to have stenotic nares (in my...

This is Bug She is on her second round of antibiotics for pneumonia (first diagnosis 2/27/18 - second 3/20/18) and yesterday morning and this morning she seems really phlegmy. However, she is very active, has a great appetite and her gums have good color - so my question: Is it normal during...

I'm after opinions please on cherry eye, cherry eye repairs and recurrence of the prolapse after repair please! Jasper had his cherry eye repaired when we adopted him, about 5 months max. His eye wasn't perfect and he still had a saggier eyelid and more visible pink 'membrane' (eyelid?) in that...

Hi all! Found this forum through a random Google search and it made me laugh so much - completely identify with every single problem and behaviour thread I have read yet! Introducing our 5.5 month EB puppy, Jasper. He came to us from the Dogs Trust here in the UK as him and his littermates...

Hey guys! I've been MIA for a while...work, life...and Sgt! This is going to be a long one... So, my poor Sergeant had surgery on Thursday. A few months ago, we were out for a walk and his breathing really started to concern us. We essentially carried him home and took him to the vet the next...

Hello to all. I'm new here and kind of looking for some answers and some support from those who have experience. My male recently underwent corrective surgery for his elongated soft-palate, closed nares, and removal of little 'sack like things' in the airway. He was suffering from some...

Hi all So I am reaching out to this knowledgeable site to hope to hear on hand experiences with breathing issues. So to fill everyone in my boy Sirius is 15 months has had his nares, soft palate, and recently the sacialles done. he had the nares and palate done a 8 months old and everything...

Looks like it's 'our' turn.. Hank gets his palate, nares, and entropien (sp) surgery on March 2nd. Thank God I have been referred to the greatest vet and that he knows and loves Hank already, I have good feelings it will all go well... so, I'm sure i'll be asking more, but, what did you use to...

Hi there, we have a (almost) 2 year old EB. We got him from what we believed to be a reputable breeder. ( won't name names as of yet). Unfortunately our poor boy has had a multidue of health issues in his short little life. Numerous skin issues/infections, prolapsed urethra x3 (surgically...

Uga has surgery on her cherry eye & her soft palate in 2 days. She did great when she was spayed & had her nares done, but I'm so worried about her throat swelling after surgery! Any suggestions how I can make recovery as easy as possible for her? Small ice chips? Puree her food?

I know english bulldogs have allergies. I don't know if this is from that though. He didn't do this when we lived in Miami where the air was very moist. Now we're in southern california and its very dry. The outside of his nose is always bone dry. When you're in a very dry environment...

Ms. Willow will be having her cherry eye surgery in the morning as well as nares and checking for elongated pallet... I could use some prayers, although I have every confidence in my vet. She needs to be spayed, but this is a relatively light surgery and I honestly want to see how she handles...

I've been sick all week, so this weekend I was trying to get the pups back on a schedule of the daily walk since it's been so nice outside. I noticed that Wally was walking funny... sure enough an interdigital cyst is going on. I tried to put some meds on it, and take a good look and he wasn't...

Vet checkup today. Fezzik is doing great; although he has lost some weight this summer. It was probably due to the stress of vacation but we will be increasing his food amount now that we are home and watch his weight. The vet did say that he could be a candidate for nare surgery because of his...

Bristol had her palate and nares done almost a month ago and we haven't noticed a difference. She still pants constantly. We haven't noticed any difference. She caught aspiration pneumonia and spent a week in th O2 cage. She is still on meds and has a recheck Tuesday but I am frustrated that...

So Penny was a rescue; she is big but doesn't look like an OEB. The vets say nope she is just a big English bulldog. I don't think we noticed how big until we got Bristol and she didn't grow to the size we expected. The vets took blood test when we first had her evaluated for the soft palate...

Hello I am an on again off again member for a live a fairly busy life but when I was thinking about getting an EBD I called a few local vets to ask about the medical problems associated with EBDs. Well one vet told me if you want to get an ebd I would suggest obtaining health insurance and my...

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...

She had her soft palate and nares done Wednesday. Since she had a small cough and regurgitated once instead of her coming home Thursday they kept her until yesterday. They took an X-ray and didn't see pneumonia and scheduled a recheck for Monday. We brought her home yesterday armed with many...

I am a wreck. I dropped her off at 7am. I had her pre-op appointment yesterday where the surgeon once again went over the nares surgery and and the soft palette resection. She said she would come home with anti nausea drugs and they would monitor whether she would need steroids but no barking...

So these past 24 hours have been the worst of my life. Beefs soft palate surgery, nares widening and neuter was Wednesday morning. We took beef home Thursday around 4pm. He was doing a lot of gaging/retching and threw up a few piles of white phlegm/foam. Everything seemed fine and we all went to...

Beef is going for his soft palate surgery tomorrow (with possible removal of any saccules and widening the nares) and neuter... I'm sick to my stomach about it but I know it will be the best for him in the long run. I Could really use some prayers for a safe surgery, I'm so nervous :(

Bristol went in for her surgical evaluation today-Brachycephalic Syndrome. They said she does need to have her nares opened and her soft pallet shortened. They said it was one of the longest they have seen and went into her airway, they said her saccules are soft and don't need to be removed...

Hi I am new here -4 years ago we got our first Bullie from a rescue. No one could age her as she had worn her teeth down to nubs but the best guess was she was 3 or 4 at the time. So now 7 or 8. She has been such an amazing addition to our family. Behavior wise a super star and health wise so...

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...

In November Griffin had a consult with dr Sardinas, board certified surgeon, at Miami Veterinary Specialists this morning. We are looking at a definite need for palate and nares surgery. His left ear is probably going to need an ear ablation surgery; it's so stenotic that it is unlikely it will...

Omg! I've survived probably the hardest 3 months of my life since having newborn babies!!! LMBO!!! Seriously though- things are definitely getting much easier. Next week Penny goes in to get spayed and her nares opened up as well. By looks of Lockjaw, we will be adding surgery for his cherry eye...

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...

I am sitting here in shock and could cry at any moment. So Radar had his 2nd ACL surgery 2 weeks ago, I took him to the vet for an x-ray to see how things were going cause he doesn't seem to be healing as fast as the first time -- thought that may happen since it was time 2 -- went to pick him...

Today Walter is officially off his restricted activity… it was really cool here this morning so I took him for a short walk in the hood. He did fantastic… I can tell a HUGE difference in his breathing since having his nares and palate done. None of the gasping for air that seemed to follow...

It's time… Ugh!!! :( Walter is due for his vaccines this month, and Ray may be leaving again soon for another job so I can't put it off any longer. Walter's eye ulcer looks to be getting worse, so it's time to do his surgery. He will have his inner eyelashes removed, and his nares widened by...

It's official on May 11 Radar is having his nares, palate and acl fixed. I got a preapproval from Trupanion for all of it, so that part is out of the way. My husband is building Radar a carpeted ramp to use on the stairs to get outside, I have our hotel room booked for the night he has to stay...
