With brachycephalic breeds like French Bulldogs, Boxers, and English Bulldogs routinely included in most popular breed lists in the U.S., the only thing more common than treating them in your practice may be strong feelings about their health. But how many of the things we know about brachycephalic breeds are supported by many years of pet health data? In 2022, Nationwide started publishing novel evidence-based pet health studies about cancer and diseases of aging pets, leveraging their 40 years of pet health experience and data to provide pet families and veterinary healthcare teams with tangible analysis and insights. This session will provide newly published insights into diseases of brachycephalic dogs, offering a data-informed approach to brachycephalic disease awareness, education, and management.
This program will:
- Recognize the role that an evidence-based approach to brachycephalic disease management can take in practice
- Discover how the relative risk of diseases (e.g., respiratory, neurologic, and ocular) differ among brachycephalic breeds and between other dog breeds
- Consider practical health recommendations for pet families with brachycephalic dogs
This webinar is FREE for all attendees.
1.5 hours of RACE CE credits (medical) will be available for HSVMA members only.
