surgery

Peppa was dumped at a shelter with a large growth in her abdomen. She had surgery to remove the growth and is feeling much better now. The picture posted was her on her freedom ride - no question about how happy she was to be spung! We are still evaluating her and how she is with other...

I came into CEBR separately but have formed such a close bond and love for my foster brother Tank that CEBR has decided that we should be adopted as a bonded pair and stay with each other forever – Yay for us. You may have heard of us by our celebrity couple name #Truby. I’m 16 a month old...

Hello! My name is Creed. I like to think that I was named after the boxer in the "Rocky" movies, but it could be that 90's band too! I am a 2.5 year old male and I am loving life! My owner surrendered me to CEBR because I had a torn ACL in my hind leg and they could not afford my medical care. I...

Experience with entropion surgery? What to expect post surgery? Recovery time? Surgical pain level vs relief from procedure?

Dear all, Ulysses and I are back and we are extremely happy to reconnect with our bully forum family again. So sorry to have been disconnected for a while but as you all know, sometimes life gets in the way and one looses touch for a bit. Sadly, we received not such good news from the vet this...

Porkchop was diagnosed with entropion a couple of years ago, at age 7. Daily treatment with Genteel Eyes was helpful. In the last week, he has been dragging his face on the carpet, both eyes are squinting, tearing and gooey in the mornings. He has become combative if I try to exam his eyes...

CEBR welcomes Blair to her new life after spending her first year in a puppymill. Blair is a petite little lady with the gentlest soul. She's estimated at about a year old, though most of the time she comes across as a more mature. She's very quiet most of the time, happy to snuggle and nap on...

Hi there! Would love your help and opinions. I have a bulldog rocky (2yrs old) who keeps getting ulcers on and off and has been seeing an eye specialist(eye care for animals) for some other issues. We saw our normal vet for a checkup who works with a lot of bulldogs and he told us rocky needs...

Crabcake had his soft palate surgery today. I got the good news quickly that the surgery went well and he woke up with no issues. Hoping to get him back tomorrow morning if inflammation is kept down tonight. Do you guys have any recommendations in terms of what and how much food to give him...

Jackson had his vet check yesterday and the "rattle/congestion" we are hearing is from his elongated palate. Vet said it was "quite long" and he will bear watching. He said surgery would onky be done if necessary and when he is older. Should the breeder have mentioned this possibility when I...

Hello all! I'm new to this forum but am reaching out in the hopes that someone may be able to provide some recommendations that may help. I apologize in advance for this long post. Our male EB, Gumbo, is turning 11 years old soon. He's generally always been in pretty good health and we've...

Hello all! I have a question. Few weeks ago we noticed Moose's eye constantly tearing, waking up with a lot of gunk around his eye and reddish so we took him to the vet. Our vet (has 2 bullies herself) told us he has entropion in one eye but wouldn't rush to surgery. She also mentioned it's...

Had the dreaded tail pocket plastic surgery today. To add insult to injury they shaved his butt and he’s embarrassed. Looks better than I thought it would.

Hey All! I really need some guidance here. Georgia is 3 and has a torn ACL. She had surgery last Monday. We thought everything was fine and then she started limping and crying pretty badly a few days ago. We went back to the vet for a check up and it's torn AGAIN. We have had her on limited...

I’m putting the recycling bins outside in the lane for pick up tomorrow. I did close the gate but didn’t latched it as it was a whole 3 seconds. I don’t know how he did it, little sh*t came running out, ran to the neighbour’s side and I’m there running after him n calling him to come here, fell...

Been doing tiny walks with Jake. Even though he’s not fat, he’s sure not in shape. He finally did his first 1km (0.61 mile). It’s not much but I don’t want to push him either. Especially after his surgery a couple weeks ago. We got home and walked through the back gate. He went for some water n...

Jake comes from a farm so he’s not use to walk. Almost fell on my butt a few times of being tangled between him n Nyala. He did ok and we only walked 1/2 km since he’s getting surgery for his soft palate we’re not pushing it. He’s cooling off on the floor snoring. Nyala is wearing Duke on her...

Our vet has referred us to a specialist to have Walter's sinuses looked at. She recommended having the sinus surgery done as soon as possible to prevent it from causing any health issues down the road. While this makes perfect sense to me, I'm still concerned about his age and the amount of...

Hello. I have a 2.5yr old bulldog, Bear. I took him to the vet last week because he was limping. He actually had been limping since (maybe) April. But, he would just limp a few steps, then seem to walk normally. This would occur off and on (mostly off). He also walks diagonally - I'm not...

I've decided that I'm going to try to document Ollie's experience with TPLO (tibial-plateau leveling osteotomy) surgery. I'm pretty much having to learn everything on my own. Maybe some time down the road someone might find this useful. If it needs to be moved, feel free Moderator/s. In the...
