Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) is a breed-related disorder that means affected animals cannot breathe normally and this significantly compromises their welfare. Animals affected by brachycephaly (having a flat face) include dog breeds such as the French Bulldog, Pug, Boston Terrier, Boxer, British Bulldog, and Shih-tzu [1] and cats such as the Persian and Persian-derived breeds such as the Exotic Shorthair. Some rabbit breeds also suffer from brachycephaly, including the Netherland dwarf and the Lionhead breeds. (https://lnkd.in/gjW_Z_hC)
