Elongated soft palate in bulldogs and French bulldogs elongated soft palate is an abnormality that can cause increased airway resistance, as well as an increase in negative intra-airway pressure, laryngeal fatigue, and irreversible laryngeal atrophy.
The condition is exasperated by excitement or/and activity and manifested by a loud breathing sound (stridor). It often progresses to retching, hyperthermia, and life-threatening cardio, circulatory and respiratory collapse.

Gut dysbiosis is an overgrowth of bad gut bacteria, often due to the overuse of medications such as steroids and antibiotics. Chronic and acute stress, anxiety, and chronic disease can also induce dysbiosis. Probiotic, probiotic, and digestive enzyme replacement is recommended.
Gut dysbiosis affects adversely the “good gut bacteria,” causing leaky bowels, flatulence, diarrhea, vomiting, weight loss, and poor health. An imbalanced gut microbiome can also affect the skin.
