Severe brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome is associated with hypercoagulability in dogs [PDF]

Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2017
We evaluated whether dogs with severe brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) developed a hypercoagulable state similar to people with obstructive sleep apnea. Five dogs with grade 3 BOAS were included as well as 5 healthy control Labrador Retrievers. Venous blood samples were collected from each dog for performance of thromboelastography and

Response to Two Standardized Exercise Tests in Dogs with Different Cephalic Biotypes [PDF]

Veterinary Sciences
Dogs are classified according to their total cephalic index into three biotypes: dolichocephalic, mesocephalic, and brachycephalic. The latter has emerged due to the deliberate selection of extreme phenotypic traits during breeding, which has intensified
