Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) can make breathing difficult for flat‑faced breeds such as Bulldogs, Pugs and French Bulldogs.

At McMaster & Heap Veterinary Practice, we can assess your pet for BOAS and discuss whether corrective airway surgery may help improve their breathing, comfort and quality of life.

BOAS surgery aims to widen and stabilise the upper airway, allowing affected pets to breathe more freely and exercise more comfortably.

If your pet is showing signs of airway obstruction, our vets can guide you through the evaluation process and the surgical options available.
