Value to Your Practice

Due to the recent increase in both the popularity of brachycephalic breeds and the compromise of their welfare due to indiscriminate breeding, surgical correction of BOAS is frequently sought after to improve the quality of life of these animals. Learning the techniques involved at this hands-on workshop, will allow you to confidently make decisions surrounding these cases.
