Specialized Surgery for Brachycephalic Breeds

Brachycephalic dogs and cats - such as Bulldogs, Pugs, Boston Terriers, and Persian cats - have shortened noses and unique anatomical features that can sometimes lead to breathing difficulties and other health issues. At Fountain City Animal Hospital, Dr. Hoyt has extensive experience with procedures that will help these breeds breathe easier and live more comfortably.

Our services include stenotic nares revision, palatoplasty (soft palate surgery), and corkscrew tail amputation when medically indicated. Our surgical team gives your pet specialized one-on-one care throughout these surgeries to ensure the best outcome.

Our goal is to improve your pet's quality of life - helping them breathe more freely, move more comfortably, and enjoy a happier, healthier life by your side.
