Expert Brachycephalic Airway Surgery for Your Pet

At Mobile Veterinary Surgery, we specialize in brachycephalic airway surgery for dogs suffering from brachycephalic airway obstructive syndrome (BOAS). Dogs with brachycephalic traits, like French Bulldogs and Pugs, are prone to breathing difficulties due to their unique skull shape. Based in Frederick, MD, our experienced team of veterinary surgeons offers a mobile solution to treat these conditions and improve your dog’s quality of life, without the need for a large referral hospital.

Contact us today to schedule an appointment for your dog’s brachycephalic airway surgery.


What Is Brachycephalic Airway Surgery?

Brachycephalic airway surgery is designed to treat brachycephalic airway obstructive syndrome (BOAS), a condition common in brachycephalic breeds like French Bulldogs, Pugs, and other flat-faced dogs. These breeds often suffer from restricted airflow due to structural abnormalities in their nose and throat, which leads to noisy breathing, snoring, and even life-threatening respiratory distress.

Our specialized surgery aims to improve airflow by addressing the physical obstructions in the French Bulldog airway, Pug airway, and other brachycephalic dogs. The surgery can include procedures like nostril widening, soft palate resection, and laryngeal saccules removal, all of which help your dog breathe easier.


Why Your Dog Might Need Brachycephalic Airway Surgery

If your French Bulldog or Pug is suffering from noisy or labored breathing, excessive snoring, or difficulty exercising, it could be a sign of brachycephalic airway obstructive syndrome (BOAS). In severe cases, BOAS can significantly affect your dog’s ability to breathe, resulting in poor oxygenation and reduced activity levels.


Brachycephalic airway surgery can help:

  • Improve breathing and airflow
  • Reduce noisy breathing, snoring, and snorting
  • Enhance overall comfort and quality of life
  • Prevent more serious respiratory issues down the road
  • Allow your dog to exercise and play without difficulty

If you notice signs of Pug loud breathing, French Bulldog snore, or difficulty breathing in your dog, it’s time to consult with a small animal surgeon about possible surgical solutions.
