Description

Brachycephalic (flat-faced) companion animals are facing a growing health crisis, with dogs, particularly breeds like the French Bulldog and Pug, suffering from a range of health issues. This comprehensive guide provides the full story on brachycephalic health and welfare, equipping veterinary professionals, animal welfare scientists, breeders, and owners with the knowledge they need to improve the lives of these beloved pets.

Divided into two parts, the book first explores the context of the crisis, covering historical, social, ethical, and clinical perspectives. It then delves into the clinical arena, covering topics such as respiratory disease, ophthalmology, dermatology, and anesthesia, with contributions from world-leading experts.

With twenty chapters written by experts in the field, this book is a valuable resource for anyone looking to improve the welfare of brachycephalic animals. It will challenge your understanding and provide new insights into the unique healthcare needs of these animals, helping you to make informed decisions and take action to improve their care.
