Brachycephalic breeds, such as bulldogs, pugs, and Frenchies, are beloved for their unique appearance, but their shortened skulls often come with a lifelong struggle to breathe comfortably. Brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) is more than just snoring or noisy breathing; it’s a progressive condition that can significantly reduce a pet’s quality of life.
At Knox Veterinary Surgery, we perform BOAS corrective surgeries at your hospital, giving patients the care they need in a setting they already trust. Our goal is to reduce airway resistance, improve breathing, and help these special breeds enjoy a more active, comfortable life.


BOAS Procedures We Perform
We offer a combination of surgical techniques to correct the anatomical abnormalities associated with brachycephalic syndrome. Each procedure is tailored to the patient's airway needs and performed on-site with full surgical monitoring and support.
