Bulldog Vet Specialist

Your bulldog might not require all of the services that are offered to other pets. Because bulldogs are purposefully developed to be larger than other dogs, they are more likely to have a variety of health issues.

Additional health problems that may impact bulldogs include of:

• Cherry Eye: The third eyelid on bulldogs is typically hidden. But when their eyelid is displaced or misaligned, the pink or red portion of the mass becomes visible, exposing a protrusion surrounding the eyelid. Cherry Eye can be treated with the assistance of our team of certified Bulldog Vets at Local Vets. Click here to learn more about our cherry eye treatment.
  

• Brachycephalic Syndrome (Soft Palette): This is a typical occurrence among dogs with flat faces, such as bulldogs. Dogs with flat faces are frequently the result of certain breeding practices, however these practices can also lead to common health problems as Soft Palette. This is the area where airway obstructions may make it harder for your bulldog to breathe. The signs and symptoms of Brachycephalic syndrome include nasal discharge, snoring, and shortness of breath when exerting yourself. See how our bulldog-focused veterinarians can assist in treating soft palate by reading more about it here.
  

• Dermatological Issues: Because of the extra skin layers covering their faces, bulldogs may have skin issues that other dogs do not. They are more vulnerable to bacterial skin issues because of their extra skin.
