Meet Enzo the Frenchie.
At just 4 months old, Enzo was evaluated for BOAS, a common airway condition in brachycephalic breeds. Before surgery, the video shows Enzo struggling to breathe and regurgitating, both of which can affect comfort and quality of life.
Using a VetScalpel surgical laser, Dr. Boaz Man performed BOAS corrective surgery, including work to open the nasal passages and address the elongated soft palate.
